Houston • After falling victim to Donovan Mitchell and a big Jazz blitz in the fourth quarter of Game 4 in Salt Lake City, the Rockets were determined not to let that happen again Wednesday night at the Toyota Center.
They weren’t entirely successful. After all, the Rockets had gone up by as many as 12 points early in the third quarter, only to find themselves trailing 77-75 with less than 10 minutes remaining in the game.
Still, this time, it was Houston’s players that made the big plays down the stretch.
“A lot of things are not going to go your way offensively, and it didn’t for us throughout the whole game.
