Houston has dropped consecutive games since defeating the Pacers in Indianapolis 98-94 last Monday. The Rockets have averaged just 90.8 points in the four games with Harden back in their lineup and are ranked last in field goal percentage (41.3 percent)after shooting 33.3 percent (30 for 90) against the Spurs to continue their slump.

this would be a big win. Sundays are nicer when Colts and Pacers both win.

Would be the cherry on top of what has been a great sports weekend. IUBB and the Pacers winning on Friday, IUFB getting the much-needed win yesterday to keep bowl hopes alive, the Colts keeping postseason hopes alive with the W today.

Come on Pacers, let's finish the weekend right!

Also, looks like Melo is out for the game due to "Illness" and could be on his way out of Houston altogether shortly.

Rockets can't miss right now, they are putting on a clinic behind the arc.

Kemba has played his value so high that that offer doesn’t come anywhere close.

look at the standings. Charlotte is in the playoff hunt too. why would they give up their best player for what you consider worthless?

we'll have the cap room to sign him next summer. I don't have point guard at the top of my needs list, but if I did, I'd play free agency rather than trading and hoping to resign him.

you still are ignoring that the Hornets want to do something in the PO's too.
