Wednesday Nov 9 8:30 PM CT

TV: Root Sports + ESPN

Referees: Scott Foster (#48) Eric Dalen (#37) Courtney Kirkland (#61)

Spurs coming off a big 24 pt loss at home last Saturday to Clippers and also in their previous home game to Utah so it's unlikely they will lose 3 home games in a row but who knows.

Rockets starters: Harden, Brewer, Capela, Anderson, Ariza
Spurs Starters: Mills?, Green, Aldridge, Gasol, Leonard

Tony Parker could be out. Danny Green making season debut.

Rockets need to win this game after losing to both Cleveland and Atlanta. It'd be nice to have a win against a playoff team

The chances they win this game are very small. Hopefully they can beat the Spurs at home on Saturday but I'm not expecting much tonight. Catching the Spurs at home after they just got blown out is tough

Spurs homer is coming to spend the next few days with me

Like a super obnoxious homer...I may go to jail for beating a guy to death tonight

Good luck with that. Maybe you should make him wait outside during the game.

That could have been a sick ass move by manu

Offense is moving the ball nicely

Rockets looking good so far.

Good to see the bench showing up. The Rockets need the bench in games like this against teams like the Spurs.

Gordon as 6th Man should really help the team's consistency.

I really really hope it helps. Harden going to the sitting just hurts far to much.

They're really letting the Spurs mug the Rockets inside on some of these plays.

Triple Dekker!!!

Great pass by Harden there. This team is really gelling quickly before our eyes.

So Sam Dekker is good

I said I was fine with Brewer taking open threes but I've changed my mind

Only if Ariza hit that three off that touch pass from Nene

Well, that lead evaporated quickly!

The bench is sickening

I cannot believe that Capela caught that & made it! Great pass by Harden!

I'm saying that a lot this season.
