1st Quarter
The Rockets hosting the Lakers for the first time this season, started out on a high note thanks to Jalen Green who scored 10 of the Rockets first 13 points to open the game. Back-to-back layups by Alperen Sengun gave the Rockets a nine-point lead, 23-14. The Lakers were able to knock the Rockets lead down to five points by the end of the quarter, 26-21.

2nd Quarter
The Lakers continued to chase the Rockets in the second quarter before finally capturing the lead when LeBron James hit two free throws. The Rockets would reclaim the lead over the next minute, but the Lakers used a 9-2 run to end the first half leading 61-57.

3rd Quarter
The Lakers led througout the third quarter, including at one point leading by their biggest margin of the game, nine points, 72-63 on Austin Riers three-point basket. The Rockets mounted a comeback and outscored the Lakers 13-5 to pull to within one point, 77-76. The Lakers were up 83-80 until Reggie Bullock scored on a layup just before the quarter ended. The Lakers headed into the fourth quarter with a one-point lead 83-82.

4th Quarter

If you could post the score or the records of the teams playing, that would be awesome to help follow along. You're killing it though.

Get Bron another MVP

[theICON562]

I had to restart because of a statistical glitch that happened to Matisse Thybulle after I played Portland for the second time. It had him going 0-for-257 from the field and that was on his statistics page and also figured into the team stats. FIrst time I have ever come across that but hopefully it was just a one time thing. I do plan on posting the other scores from around the league plus league/team news as it happens.

I more meant could you post the scores of the games you play in, unless I'm missing something glaring and just cannot read.

Oh yeah my bad. I have been trying to but there was an issue with the bbcode for tables but its been fixed so I'll posting them in depth.
