04/10: LAKERS vs. Houston Rockets 1st Half Open Thread and Discussion


Welcome in to the first half of the Lakers' matchup vs. the Houston Rockets in the penultimate game of the season. Leave a comment below and share your thoughts on the game.

Q2

HOU 56 LAL 48

Well, well, the Lakers find themselves down only by eight, which is a good way to end the half. Houston in that first half, it's like they're on autopilot right now. They light it up offensively and then slow it down a bit. Like I said, it's like they're not trying, which they don't need to do since they locked up home court throughout the West playoffs. The biggest story during this quarter, Andre Ingram, 32-years old, can ball. A couple of three pointers and starting off 11 points, that is a feel good story there. It's never too late to fulfill a dream and Andre Ingram is living it right now, playing in the NBA. Not much to say about adjustments, so on to the 2nd half. 

Q1

HOU 23 LAL 16

It's like the Rockets are not even trying since they have the #1 seed on lock. Slow start for both teams. A very bland first quarter to start the game. Luckily, the Rockets haven't put the clamps on yet. The Lakers just have to hang around as much as possible to compete.
