Rockets experimentation leads to whupping of Warriors

"With the Rockets shorthanded in the backcourt and experimenting with options at point guard, Luis Scola gave Kevin McHale another option – the point power forward. The Rockets' passing was sharp all night and Scola needed 24 minutes to match his season high of seven assists when he fired a pass through the legs of Golden State's Brandon Rush to a waiting Samuel Dalembert to chase his career-high eighth assist in style. But Dalembert was fouled before he could get his shot to fall, and Scola's night was soon over. Still, they had dominated the Warriors inside together, and even if Scola did not quite audition for the point power forward role, he did typify the Rockets' slick passing in an easy 109-83 blowout of the Warriors on Thursday night at Toyota Center."
