NBA 2018-19: Teams of The Week - Week 23

#4 Houston Rockets:

Houston Rockets are putting together a good run

The Houston Rockets are soaring of late and currently placed third in a Western Conference dogfight. With a 47-27 record this season and eight wins from their last 10 matches, they played four games this past week and were carried to three wins in them - courtesy of some crazy scoring performances from James Harden.

They took on the Atlanta Hawks in a road game and came out on top, winning 121-105. They then travelled to the Memphis Grizzlies, where they suffered an overtime loss in the dying seconds of the game, losing 125-126. Facing conference rivals San Antonio Spurs, they prevailed 111-105 in that one.

The final game of the week was when the Houston Rockets faced the New Orleans Pelicans, which they ended up winning, 113-90. The Rockets are surging at the right time and they need to figure out how to keep their run going to finish in the top four seeds.
