I wrote recently that a large part of the Rockets’ struggles last season were due to attitude issues. After a horrible loss to a terrible team yesterday, they’ll have to work hard to keep from being down on themselves going into tonight’s matchup. Houston has looked like a different team from last year in almost every way, but they haven’t had many hard times to go through.
If they aren’t able to take down the Milwaukee Bucks, they’ll go into a back-to-back against the Golden State Warriors and the Memphis Grizzlies on a two game losing streak.
