Tonight, the Rockets return to Toyota Center after their five-game road trip in which they went 3-2. There were many ups and downs on their road trip, but there was likely no higher high than when the Rockets went into Indiana and defeated the Pacers, who had just beat the Boston Celtics in their previous game.

Tonight, the Pacers come to Houston to finish their two-game season series with the Rockets.

With a lot of talk about Carmelo Anthony and his situation dominating the headlines along with its abysmal 4-7 start, the Rockets could use a win against a premier Eastern Conference team to steer them back on track.

Tonight, Melo remains out with an illness and Gerald Green, who exited last night’s game with a hamstring strain, will also not play tonight.
