The Hornets drop to 1-3 on the season.
Over the last two games, head coach Steve Clifford wasn't all that happy with his team's effort on the glass and in the paint. Tonight, they fixed those issues winning by the rebounding battle 44-38 and outscoring Houston in the paint, 58-32. Tonight's issues were defending the three-point shot. The Rockets drained 21 threes on the night, helping them to their first victory of the season.
Washington was terrific in this one, particularly on the offensive end where he went for 23 points on 8/13 shooting, including hitting five of six from three-point land. Unfortunately for the Hornets, his efficient shooting night was wasted.The Rockets made some tough shots, but the Hornets didn't do a great job of rotating and closing out on open shooters. Quite the disappointment for a team that showed a lot of promise on that end of the floor in the first two games.
