Bobby Brown is in the game in the first quarter.

That kind of game!

Not bad.

Troy Williams continues to look really good. It doesn't go in a lot yet but his jumper is 100% rebuilt from where it was in college.

What is his contract status? I have to imagine that he's getting attention around the league.

Mr. E's Halftime Thoughts:

Huge lead and Bobby Brown has played significant minutes in the first half. I'm just sticking around for the Onauaku free throws now.

Good to see Spaceman hitting those shots!

GO ROCKETS!

Onuaku is the freaking man!!!

More big men should follow his lead if they struggle from the stripe.

It is kind of sad that Harden's incredible season is going to be forgotten by many because of a stat-padder.

Shades of the 2015 All-Star game.
