Deron Williams can be considered a true professional. While a good number of players, after they have a bad game, blame anyone but themselves, Williams put the burden upon himself after his team lost to the Sacramento Kings Friday night.

Collison Impresses, Hornets Sting Rockets 102-94
The New Orleans Hornets, 5-4 since Chris Paul has been sidelined with a meniscus tear in his left knee, are basically treading water at this point of the season. It may make one wonder of the team is regressing and they miss Paul’s presence in the lineup. I’d have to say that CP-3′s replacement, Darren [...]
Suns Win Rare Road Game, Beat Rockets In OT 115-111
The Phoenix Suns, for the most part, haven’t had that much success on the road (9-15), even prior to their game Sunday night against the Houston Rockets at Toyota Center. Unfortunately for the Rockets, Amare Stoudemire decided to bring his A-game to town, scoring a season-high 36 points, helping Phoenix outlast Houston in overtime 115-111. [...]
Melo-less Nuggets Extend Win Streak To Eight, Beat Rockets 97-92
All the quality teams in the NBA find ways to win games when their marquee player is out for whatever reason. The Denver Nuggets are no different in that respect.

Duncan Milestone Spoiled, Rockets Bounce Spurs 116-109
Tim Duncan, during Friday night’s game between the Houston Rockets and San Antonio Spurs at AT&T Center, managed to achieve a milestone that few players in the NBA reach: score 20,000 points. While Duncan did reach that milestone and more during the game, the guard duo of Aaron Brooks and Kyle Lowry spoiled the celebration. [...]
Suns Rally From Double-Digit Deficit, Burn Rockets 118-110
Wednesday night’s game between the Houston Rockets and Phoenix Suns had to be arguably the best game of the night during a heavy NBA schedule. While rallying from double-digit leads is nearly commonplace during the season, it is rare that two players on the losing team have career nights. Despite career highs in scoring from [...]
CP-3, West’s Huge Efforts Wasted; Rockets Soar Past Hornets 108-100
It isn’t every day that two players on the same team have excellent overall games while the bench collapses. Yet that’s exactly what happened Tuesday when the New Orleans Hornets visited Houston to take on the Rockets at Toyota Center. Both teams shot well, yet despite a career high of 44 points by David West and [...]
