Game Preview

Three consecutive losses marred by poor defensive performances placed the Houston Rockets squarely amid an early-season lull, one requiring an immediate course correction.

The Rockets snapped their losing skid with an easy home victory over the short-handed Dallas Mavericks on Friday, but it was their 106-104 road triumph over the New Orleans Pelicans the following night that provided Houston precisely what it needed.

Playing uphill most of the game, the Rockets rallied late with a steely-eyed effort that had become commonplace on their home court. Houston, which will host the Indiana Pacers on Tuesday in the opener of a seven-game homestand, delivered on the road against a healthy Pelicans squad. The victory represented a step forward — or at least one in the right direction following recent struggles.
