Rockets-Raptors Preview

The Toronto Raptors regrouped and put together a solid performance in their last game.

It's uncertain when the Houston Rockets will have their entire group together.

Toronto looks to win consecutive games for the first time this season Friday night when it faces the undermanned Rockets, who are looking to bounce back from their most lopsided defeat of the season.

Coming off a 15-point loss to Washington on Tuesday in which they allowed 55 second-half points, the Raptors (3-9) capped a 2-2 trip with a 94-86 victory over Philadelphia on Wednesday.

Toronto held the 76ers to 36.8 percent shooting and 39 points in the final 24 minutes.

"I didn't think we had respect for the game against Washington," forward Reggie Evans, among the league leaders with 11.7 rebounds per game, said after grabbing 14. "We got an F (Tuesday) night. I think we got a much higher grade here and played with the type of energy we need to be successful."

Houston (3-8) hoped the return of Yao Ming this season after foot surgery would lead to success, but the team is struggling again without the seven-time All-Star.

Yao has missed the last four games with a sprained left ankle, and coach Rick Adelman is unsure of what to expect from him when he returns. The 7-foot-6 center's status is uncertain.

"... My biggest concern is he was working himself, trying to get in condition," Adelman said. "Now, he's missed this time. Where is he going to be when he comes back?"

Off to their worst start since opening 3-11 five years ago, the Rockets are also trying to overcome the loss of point guard Aaron Brooks, who has been sidelined six games with a sprained left ankle and could be out until December.

Kyle Lowry and undrafted rookie Ishmael Smith have done a decent job running the team in Brooks' absence, and guard Kevin Martin is averaging a team-high 23.1 points, but the mounting injuries and losses are taking their toll.

A 116-99 defeat at Oklahoma City on Wednesday was Houston's worst since a 31-point loss at Indiana on April 4.

"This is a frustrating situation," forward Luis Scola, who's averaging career highs of 22.9 points and 10.0 rebounds, told the Rockets' official web site after scoring 26 with eight boards. "I think we're a way better team than our record shows. But our record is our record and it's the truth right now, so we need to find a way to start winning games."

One way might be to improve defensively. The Rockets, who have dropped three straight in Toronto by an average of 16.3 points, have yielded 111.0 per game while losing five of seven on the road.

While Houston finishes a brutal stretch of six games in six cities over 10 days, the Raptors play seven of their next eight at home.

Leandro Barbosa could help Toronto begin this portion of the schedule on a good note, as he might play Friday after missing five games with a strained left shoulder.

Rockets reserve Chase Budinger could be back after being out three games with a sprained left ankle.

The home team has won the last six matchups in this series.

THE FACTS: On Friday night at the Air Canada Centre, the Toronto Raptors took down the Houston Rockets 106-96, despite a tightly contested fourth quarter with five lead changes and two ties. Six Raptors reached double-figures, led by Andrea Bargnani's 26.

QUOTABLE: "I think what struck me was their youthful exuberance. With Chris gone, obviously there's a huge void on the offensive end so young guys are emerging. Guys like DeRozan and Weems, they're making the most of their opportunity. I think Bargnani has really stepped up his game. He's really become a tough cover."
-- Shane Battier on the new-look Raptors

THE STAT: After going through the first 24 minutes of the game without a single free throw attempt, the Raptors were much more aggressive after the break. The result? 30 free throw attempts over the final 24 minutes of the game as compared to 16 attempts for the Rockets in the second half.

TURNING POINT: With the Raptors leading by one at the start of the fourth, the game was tied at 76 with 10:48 remaining. From there the Raptors went on a 15-5 run to pull ahead by 10 and the Rockets were unable to catch up, despite cutting the lead down to three with under three minutes to play.

QUOTABLE II: "A lot of people, he's kind of the innocent kid so they really don't see him get mad too often...he attacked a little harder once they got him a little angry. He's a great player, man. He needs to do that for 48 minutes."
-- Sonny Weems on DeMar DeRozan's aggressive approach down the stretch

HOT: Kevin Martin finished the game with a game-high 31 points on 8-for-16 shooting. He went to the line 11 times, sinking all 11 of his attempts while also adding four rebounds, three assists and a steal.

NOT: Chase Budinger struggled in his first game back after missing the last three contests with an ankle sprain. He went 0-for-6 from the floor and was scoreless with two turnovers in his 14 minutes of action.

INSIDE THE ARENA: Sopranos star Steve Schirripa sat courtside for the game.

NOTABLE: Courtney Lee played just seven minutes for the Rockets. Kyle Lowry tied a career-high with 12 assists. Sonny Weems has now reached double-figures in his last seven games, bumping his average on the season to 14 points per game, almost doubling his average from last year. The Rockets finished the game 20-for-22 from the free throw line (91 percent) while the Raptors went 20-for-30 from the line (67 percent).

UP NEXT: For the Rockets, Monday vs. Phoenix, Wednesday vs. Golden State, Friday @ Charlotte. For the Raptors, Sunday vs. Boston, Wednesday vs. Philadelphia, Friday @ Boston.
