Houston wraps up a 5-game homestand against the Lakers
The Houston Rockets will try to salvage a 2-3 homestand when they welcome LeBron James (maybe) and the Los Angeles Lakers (definitely) to Toyota Center this evening.
Most Rockets fans that answered a poll at the beginning of the homestand said that they would be happy with a 3-2 stretch. That’s impossible now, but 2-3 could allow Houston to put some distance between themselves a team that will be pushing for a playoff spot all year.
Houston gets Amen Thompson back from suspension tonight. That, plus maybe the offense making some shots (non-Jalen Green edition) could lead to good things for the Good Guys.
We’ll be in the Playback room tonight, so you should come join to watch the Rockets and talk about the game. Remember, we get a handful of VIP passes that we give out to anyone who wants to watch the game. No League Pass necessary!
