Reddish deserves a lot of credit for LeBron getting to the line here. He stayed with Fred VanVleet on that drive, trapping him under the basket, which led to the awkward kickout that LeBron stole, then drew a foul in transition. AK – 10:20 PM

Dillon Brooks averaging a career-low 8.4 shots per game. He has already taken eight, more than in any of his previous five games. Has hit three for eight points. – 10:17 PM

Lakers on a 9-0 run as Udoka calls time out. Rockets not getting near the lane, relying on 3s with very little ball, body movement after a good start. – 10:13 PM

With LeBron back on the court, LAL’s offensive execution returned, as he led a 6-0 run to start the 2nd Q and make it 28-26 HOU, forcing Ime Udoka’s time out. – 10:13 PM

The moral of these last three possessions? If you don’t stand around, LeBron will reward you for that movement. AK – 10:12 PM

From Rockets PR: Rockets had 9 assists on 10 field goals made in the first quarter; Houston entered tonight having recorded an assist on 61.9% of its FGM this season which ranked 13th in the NBA; the Rockets were 29th in the league in that category last season at 55.1%. – 10:08 PM

LAL got out to an 11-4 lead, but HOU countered with 3’s to open a 10-point edge.
The 2nd unit really struggled to create good looks with Russell and LeBron on the bench, a consistent issue early this season.
LAL scored only 7 points in the final 6 min. of the 1st. – 10:08 PM

First quarter: Rockets 28, Lakers 20
Anthony Davis has 10 points and 5 rebounds. LA is shooting just 32.1% and is 2-for-10 on 3s (20%). Houston led by as many as 11 points — another double-digit deficit for LA in the first quarter. Houston is winning the 3PT and FT battles. – 10:08 PM

I really don’t like this Reaves/Reddish/Rui/Wood/Hayes lineup. Clunky, with too little playmaking, which puts even more pressure on Reaves during a period where he still looks out of rhythm. AK – 10:04 PM

Rockets have been extremely foul prone, averaging 2nd most in the league. Took 8 1/2 minutes to commit their first. Jeff Green will go to the line after the time out for the first free throw attempt of the game. I was hoping the teams would combine for a record low of 0. – 9:57 PM

VanVleet with assists on five of Rockets six field goals. On Friday, he had his fourth game with at least 10 assists and two or fewer turnovers this season. That’s more of those games than any Rockets player all of last season. – 9:50 PM
