The Houston Rockets may not have been able to move Omer Asik in a trade, but despite all the trade drama over the past week the team needs to get back to business in the Western Conference. After a nice offseason of adding talent, Houston has a lot to live up to and a nice boost would be beating one of the best teams in the NBA.

Houston is taking on the Indiana Pacers but and in order to win, they need to score baskets. Scoring a basket involves putting the basketball through the hoops from either a short or long distance. Someone forgot to deliver that memo to Francisco Garcia as the Rockets guard went for a layup but forgot the part where you need to put the biscuit in the basket.

Houston has a chance to beat the Pacers and it would be a win that helps boost their long term confidence in the Western Conference playoffs. The Rockets very well could meet the Pacers in the NBA Finals, but hopefully they’ll have remembered how to score by then.
