Houston Rockets vs. Atlanta Hawks game thread

The Dwight Howard Bowl is here. Join us.

Brett Davis-USA TODAY Sports

Dwight Howard is the central topic of conversation on Saturday evening, as the Atlanta Hawks take on the Houston Rockets in what shapes up as a "revenge game" for the veteran big man. Aside from that, though, the game will be a nice test for the Hawks on the defensive end, as the Rockets are tremendously explosive offensively, and it should be a hard-fought, competitive contest.
