Francis missed a trey and a free throw. Mobley left a drive short, crashing to the court and looking for a call that did not come. But the Spurs missed three free throws in the last 20 seconds, giving the Rockets a final chance. Last stands, however, don't always end well here. It's so close, but it becomes just numbers.
People forget all the effort and heart that was put into it.
It's disheartening we can't get a break down the stretch. It's very disheartening. Though Francis and Taylor had began to support Mobley's fast start, the Rockets seemed to be a few weapons short.
