Gritty win. This had all the hallmarks of a typical letdown. Poor reffing, shoddy three-point shooting, a struggling star in foul trouble, and Rockets bench players blacking out from the field. But Brunson wasn't about to let it happen, and the other key guys made plays.

Mikal stepped up as a second scorer; KAT made plays in the fourth; Hart closed the second quarter strong...it was just enough for Brunson to do what he does. Precious and Deuce were alright too.

Shamet's literally just a body out there and needs a replacement if he can't shoot. Payne's shot selection is funny when the bench is rolling and painful when it isn't. Huk didn't look ready, but the Rockets are a tough team for a rookie. An insurance big in case Mitch gets hurt again, and one more wing should be the trade deadline targets.
