Brooks Free Throws Help Rockets Edge Warriors 111-109
Thursday’s game between the Houston Rockets and Golden State Warriors could best be compared to a roller coaster ride as there were lots of ups and downs for both teams throughout the 48 minutes; Aaron Brooks put the matter to rest as he converted a pair of free throws with 2.1 seconds left, allowing Houston to [...]
