It will look like the the Houston Rockets pulled it off at the end if you didn't watch the contest. If you were all over the game it was what will the Rockets do next to blow the game as it was a Kawhi Leonard fall-away Money Ball that fell short and off by a country mile that lifted the Rockets into the win column.It was James Harden shooting 9 for 25 from the field and 2 for 13 from the arc as he still ended up with a game-high 35 points with seven helpers. Harden bailed himself out shooting 15 for 15 from the stripe. All five Rocket Starters were in double figures with Eric Gordon almost the "Goat" with 24 points and the "Manimal" Kenneth Faried with 21 points and fourteen boards as he tries to resurrect his career in H-Town and that style fits Faried to a "T"!
Toronto give them credit they hung in there through 48 knowing the Rockets have a tendency to let things fall where they may. The "Klaw" Kawhi Leonard led the Raptors with 32 points and seven boards with Paschal Siakam and Danny Green both with 22. Serge Ibaka did well playing in the paint with a dozen points and fourteen boards.
Toronto's 19 turnovers and shooting near 40% from the arc had them in the game the entire time. It came down to making that one play in the end and they didn't as they fall to 36-15. Houston moves to 28-20...
