NBA Triple Threat: Your (almost) daily roundup of last night's action in the Association:Rockets pound Wizards Whether it was due to the Rockets stepping up, or due to the Wizards' incompetence, Houston's 94-69 victory certainly looks impressive. It is Houston's 13th straight win, and first with Yao on the shelf. The Wizards were awful, scoring just 23 points in the first half and shotting 31.3% from the field. As for the Rockets, Hollinger points out that Houston's remaining schedule is very soft, which means they might get a playoff berth anyway. However, with what slim chance they had of winning a title gone, the question is do they really want to?
Heat actually win a game Miami are now 2-26 since Christmas with their 107-86 victory over Sacramento, their largest win of the season. Shawn Marion shot 10-14 from the field, while the team as a whole put the game away after a 31-11 third quarter. Also, in case we need more proof that Pat Riley is losing his mind, he said the following after the game: "I feel like a mosquito in a nudist colony." Uh, yeah.
Minnesota 111, Utah 100 Word of advice: If you are fighting in a very close 9 team playoff race, don't lose to the Timberwolves. This was Minnesota's first win this season against a Northwest Division team. Utah committed 24 turnovers and shot just 6-21 in the fourth quarter.
