What if told you that the Rockets held the Cleveland Cavaliers to 91 points on the evening, 39% shooting from the field and a horrific 23% from three point range?

The Cavs were on the second night of a rough road back to back, losing a tight one to the San Antonio Spurs the night before. It didn’t matter. The Rockets would have lost to literally any team in the league.
