Speaking of wild things going down in the NBA, on a night where very few people in either city were likely watching, the Rockets and Wizards played a mid-World-Series-game-7 NBA game and the final score was 159-158. Harden had 59 on 32 shots and 9 assts (only 18 FTAs today!), Beal had 46 on 20 shots(!?!?!?) to go with 8 assists and 6 rebounds, Russ had a triple double because of course he did, the Wizards' 4-man bench went for 64 on only 36 shots, and Clint Capela was good but committed the
most blatant uncalled travel I think I've ever seen. Just a crazy, crazy game, and, again, in the middle of Game 7 of the World Series between the teams in their respective cities.
