Game Thread: Rockets host Kings 12/5

Good win tonight as this team continues to round into form.

Glad to see that they pulled this one off. Dwight is playing at a very high level and he's looking comfortable out there.

I heard during the game that Harden has moved into the top 10 in assists for the NBA. What a selfish ballhog!

is it me or is ariza driving a lot more this season?

I've noticed he's learned the Chandler Parsons turning/moving the toward the hoop before he receives the pass to give him an extra 1/2 step toward the basket. This in contrast to previous seasons where he could catch the ball then possibly dribble toward the hoop. This year he is already turning toward the hoop before the ball even gets there. His ball handling is subpar, but this technique allows him that extra leverage toward the hoop to get past the defender and start creating shots for himself. I like how it's going so far this season for him.
