Sixers stop Rockets

Basketball Betting Lines

02/07/2010 - Houston, TX (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Andre Iguodala ended with 14 points, 10 rebounds and six assists and hit a big three-pointer down the stretch, as the Philadelphia 76ers surprised the Houston Rockets, 102-95, at the Toyota Center.

Thaddeus Young netted a team-high 17 points, while Willie Green and Elton Brand chipped in 15 and 13 points, respectively for the Sixers, who have rattled off a season-high four straight wins.

Aaron Brooks notched 34 points thanks to a 6-for-11 effort from behind the arc for the Rockets, who had a short two-game winning streak stopped. Kyle Lowry deposited 14 points, and Carl Landry added 13 points and 10 rebounds in the loss.

Lowry left the game in the third quarter with a sprained left ankle and he's expected to miss Tuesday's game at Miami. Lowry will be re-evaluated in approximately a week.

A Brooks jumper brought the Rockets within 94-91 with under three minutes remaining in regulation, but both he and Shane Battier missed potential tying three-pointers on the next possession.

Iguodala answered with a three-ball with 1:37 showing, and the same Houston duo missed from behind the arc the next two times Houston had the ball.

After the Sixers were whistled for a five-second violation on an inbounds pass, Battier turned it over with 33.9 seconds left to end the comeback bid.

The Sixers led 26-16 late in opening quarter, but a Lowry three-point play and a Chase Budinger make from behind the arc in the final 30 seconds made it a four-point game.

The momentum was firmly in Houston's favor thanks to an 18-0 stretch early in the second. Brooks twice hit from distance during the four-minute span, and another Lowry hoop and foul shot gave the Rockets a 42-30 lead midway through the frame.

The big quarter had the Rockets on top 57-47 at halftime, but the Sixers stayed close in the third and trailed just 76-70 heading to the final frame.

Consecutive buckets from Young followed by a Lou Williams three-pointer tied the game, 79-79, 2 1/2 minutes into the fourth. A Rodney Carney jumper on the next possession gave the visitors the lead, and it was nip-and-tuck from that point on.
