Unfortunately, no one was in attendance to see it. Nearly a 20-minute drive away from the two arenas where the league's summer league games are being held, the Rockets and the reigning Eastern Conference champs played a five-quarter scrimmage at Cheyenne High School in Las Vegas that ended up coming down to the buzzer. The result: Former Iowa guard Jeff Horner sank a game-winning three-pointer with six seconds remaining to lift the Rockets to a 97-96 victory over Cleveland. The Rockets held a double-digit lead through most of the game thanks to their collection of three-point shooters. Seemingly every time the Cavs got close, a Houston player stepped up to drill a long range shot. Former Hawaii guard Carl English had a particularly impressive stretch where he sank three straight from beyond the arc. The scrimmage essentially served as an opportunity for the Rockets and Cavs to view their full rosters since both teams ended up going deep into their benches. Rockets rookie Aaron Brooks and second-year sharpshooter Steve Novak both played only a quarter of action after pushing the team to a 20-17 advantage in the opening 10 minutes. Novak nailed a couple of three-pointers while Brooks continued to show just how quick he really is, scoring eight points in the first quarter. Carl Landry, the team's second round pick, played a bit more. He's shown a solid offensive game during his two summer-league performances. Besides having a good touch near the rim, he has routinely stepped out and canned 18 footers. He said he needs to become a better rebounder, but he moves well and could end up becoming a solid contributor with his skill set on the offensive end. Meanwhile, Israel's Lior Eliyahu and Australia's Brad Newley, a pair of second round picks over the past two years, have had their moments. But both seem to need more time to adjust to the pro game. The Rockets will return to the University of Nevada-Las Vegas campus on Thursday when they face the Dallas Mavericks. July 11, 2007 Scrimmage Time Remember when I said the Rockets were playing five games in six days? Apparently, that wasn't enough. It turns out that the Rockets are actually playing six games in six days. The Rockets, who were scheduled to have a day off, will be on the court Wednesday night for a scrimmage against the Eastern Conference champions, the Cleveland Cavaliers. Stay tuned for details.
