Houston Rockets’ Win Over Denver Nuggets Reminds of Tough Summer Ahead

March 17th, 2010 by Robert Kleeman Leave a reply »

The Rockets had seen this one before.

A 16-point lead had become an 11-point deficit in less than 12 minutes. The Denver Nuggets' explosive offense was burning everything in its path, with Carmelo Anthony hotter than a brick oven.

Then, the Rockets did what they have not been able to do in too many critical games this season: They executed in the clutch. They fought back.

Kyle Lowry scored at the cup on two straight possessions. Shane Battier dialed deep from long distance on consecutive tries.
