Zach LaVine #8 of the Chicago Bulls puts up a shot ahead of Alperen Sengun #28 of the Houston Rockets during the first half at Toyota Center on March 11, 2023 in Houston, Texas. The Rockets had led through much of the game, briefly by as much as 13, and by four with 5:40 left.
The Bulls had no such difficulties with Zach LaVine, DeMar DeRozan and Pat Beverley pouring in the 3s the Rockets could not. The Bulls outscored the Rockets 17-5 in the final 5 1/2 minutes, beginning that stretch in a game they had not led by more than two. But after making 15 of 23 3-pointers through three quarters, the Rockets made 1 of 11 in the fourth, the offense again hitting a wall five minutes too early.The Rockets got off to a flying start, which can happen on occasion and was not that surprising considering their good stretches two nights earlier and their outstanding offensive game in the win against the Bulls in Chicago.
