James Harden (27/8/6) led the way in scoring, while Clint Capela (18/16 and 6 blocks) dominated on the interior vs. Anthony Davis as the Rockets (59-14) set a new franchise record for wins in a season with Saturday night's 114-91 home victory over the New Orleans Pelicans. -   - With the win, the Rockets have won eight consecutive games and 25 of their past 26 overall. They remain effectively five games up on Golden State (54-18) and Toronto (54-19) in the race for the league's best record and home-court advantage throughout the NBA playoffs. -   - In Sunday's show, TV analyst Matt Bullard joins our Ben DuBose to break down Saturday's game and a range of other topics, including the growth shown by Capela against the NBA's best big men; why players from the 1993-94 championship squad are happy to see the 2017-18 Rockets break their record; and the current state of Mike D'Antoni's end-of-bench options, including the likes of Ryan Anderson, Nene, Gerald Green, and Joe Johnson. - - Bullard also explores the recent resurgence of Eric Gordon (45.9% overall, 44.7% on 3s in 13 games after the All-Star break) and why it could bode very well for other Rockets who get an opportunity to rest down the home stretch of the regular season. - #Rockets #NBA #Pelicans - Learn more about your ad choices.
