Link in the description. The Rockets offense going. I think I may have just twisted my words. The Rockets would certainly hope that both Dillon and Kari are playing tonight. ...won it, ultimately winning their group in cup play. It was a really fun, memorable game. The Wolves get the offensive rebound to kick out and Randall strikes first. ...has fallen off substantially since these two teams met last month up in Minneapolis. Just a good drive and a hammer by the Rockets. And we'll swing to Van Vliet. Ooh, a nasty pullback to snatch back. Oh, wow, just snatched back Conley. He had no idea where he went. Rockets rocking the city edition. Uniforms here tonight as Edwards buries the three. They're setting his rhythm with this new team as Van Vliet misses. Another rebound for Alper and Shin Goon. Randall then with the Knicks the previous five years. Shin Goon down low, used the rim to shield-go bear. He just looked so locked in last night. Here we go, Jalen Green out of the timeout, flicking to the rim. The Braves missed everything, though, as he tried to flip it over. Go bear, Rockets on the outlet, get the ball right back with a deflection. Jalen Green for three. I'm telling you, man, these Rockets are stingy. Looks like Jalen gets it. Even if he misses, you know, a layup or a shot, he gets it up really high so the base can rebound. He's a guy who can get you 50 in a hurry. He's off to a great start. Van Vliet gets the three right back. His second triple. One thing that Coach Udoka loves to do is he tries to find mismatches, and he was trying to find Julius Randall against Jalen Green. Oh, wow, good slow-mo. Great slow-mo. Shin Goon working on Randall. Comes into the lane, and without the size of go bear, was able to put that changes. So far, two on Randall, defense chins up. And he knocks it down there. Fifth point shooting team. Here comes Thompson. Oh, right to the rim with authority. What the foul. You see that he played well down there, and then has come back and has made the most of this opportunity. Randall, a little turnaround. It's been fantastic against Houston. Shepard skip pass. Intercepted, right idea. Poor execution. Ahead to defense chins up. What a pass that was. Randall up top for three. Randall, that's his second three. He's got 10 points now. That's how that used to be, Minnesota, over and over and over and over again. Oh, another one. DeFincenzo's third. Shin Goon, a couple of spins. Poked away, got it back. Got there, and won. It easy, two for him. Perhaps maybe the easiest two he's going to get tonight. He's got 15, six of seven. Shooting Van Vliet for three. DeFincenzo, the kick to corner three. Conley. Edwards from the baseline. Now seven of eight from the field. Defender in foul trouble. Hopefully something the Rockets can take advantage of. Shin Goon on Gobert. Got the foul, and the bucket. Misses. Great contest there from Galen. His first missed three of the game. Ahmed Thompson, coast to coast. Ahmed Thompson, and have won. Here tonight is Randall. Kind of out-muscled Jabari. Missed the shot. Gobert missed. A buddy got it back and didn't miss that time. Try to lay it up. The Rockets are going to take it. Make no mistake, but man. Shin Goon got the big guy off of him. As many as six in the first half. Two on Randall into Gobert. You can't let a cutter come right down the middle of your defense. Shin Goon picked up the dribbles. Finds Jabari. Working on Randall with a shot clock winding down. Oh, was able to get the shot over the top hand. Minnesota can get set. Rockets do it right there. Randall rims it right back. Oh, an air balled layup. Been a tough night for McDaniels. Ahead to Thompson for the flush. There you go. Keep playing through. Disaster happened there, Ryan. Disaster. The Rockets will take it. Randall for the foul line. He's got 18 points, four rebounds. In a game that will be tight. Van Vliet off the screen for three. His fourth. He's got 12. He got to a spot. It was good to get the ball into the rim. Rockets lead by one. Uh-oh. Stop and pop. He faked it in. Hull glass. Talk about this being a physical game. Green to Smith. Oh, yes. He is locked in. First assist of the game and a nice one. The Rockets have matched their biggest lead. Oh, and deep Vincenzo. Pick it up right where he left off. Hadn't exactly been a happy camper since he's come to Minnesota, but he's been a happy camper. Oh, that'll count. That'll count. And one for Fred Van Vliet. Another big third quarter. It's no good. That battle for the boards. And now Minnesota 2-0 on the loft. Attach the dunk. Tate set the pick. Now to Smith. Stumbled a little bit. Regained his balance. Spurred up and scored. Leading by as many as 10 in the first half. There's Shingun. Big reason why the Rockets have dominated the paint scoring in this game. Conley to Alexander. Walker from a tough angle. Deep in the corner. Uh-oh. Rudy Gobert chasing Shadow. Because they don't help Rudy. And finally, they jump and help Rudy. Take those buckets. Take these buckets anyways. To the corner. Shingun crossed the line. Tried to flush it. Cleaned up by J. Sean Tate. Yeah, that's still out there somewhere. It is still out there. Luckily, my microphone was not on. Everything, everything on the internet lives forever, boys and girls. The outlet to DiVincenzo. Poked away by Aaron Holiday. Now to Green. In the air and one. I think he's the only one tonight. DiVincenzo. Three ball number six. Because that's where you can't double Shingun. Jalen Green into the lane. Now to Ahmed Thompson. No, a punch back. That's not in New Orleans. Holiday on the move. Holiday to Green. To Smith. History. Yep. His scoring edge. 17 to 9 fast break point. Scoring edge. And then Shingun just been knackered. Oh, yeah. And that's his first assist of the game. Timeout medicine. Off the pick. Green to Tate. Rublin to the rim. Some of his older specs. So too is Ahmed Thompson. And guards. And then he blocks. And then he steals. High arc in three. Jalen Green. He's got to go. That's worth it. The shot clock winding down. Stepping through the lane. Throws it up. And it rolled through. That is the way Albi has been playing. 16 point Rockets lead. Reed. The relocation. The make. Good shot there. Stayed in it. Good balance. Harping on this. But meeting the challenge offensively. They knew they had to be better. Down through goes Ahmed. He's averaging almost two blocks per game over the last month plus. Reed for three. Well, Jibari had his strength. Still better than three minutes to go. Yeah. Got to close it out. Chengun on Edwards. With the right hand this time. I got some confidence in him. 28. That's going to be a block on Chengun. And this second half where the Rockets have gotten stronger has been very impressive. That got deflected by Di Vincenzo. Again, if you're the Rockets, you can't get cuteness. Soto's still in this game. Di Vincenzo. To Alexander Walker. Heaves it. Hits it. Wow. Passed up to three. Puts it on the deck. Reed is open from the corner. Short. Wow. Gets his own miss. Goes last. Two more for Reed. Back to Edwards. Ducks by Green. Goes up on Bearbleed. In and one. Are you kidding me? One minute to go. Rockets only lead by a single possession. Randall. Easy two. Randall thought about it. Down to Alexander Walker. Tate switches on him. To Edwards. Tate switches on him. Shoots the off-balance three. Oh, he made it. You just talked about it. Off-balance heave for three. Come on, big fella. Two on Chengun. Di Vincenzo for three. No. Rebound to Soto. The collapse is complete.
