It's finally that time of year - basketball season!
The Houston Rockets battle it out on the court against the Memphis Grizzlies in Week 3 of the 2014 regular season on Monday, November 17 at 8:00 p.m. EST at the FedExForum in Tennessee. Read on to see where fans can watch and listen to a live stream of the Monday night basketball game online and catch up-to-date feeds and coverage on highlight plays and scores.
To kick-off the NBA regular season, the Rockets snag the impressive No. 1 spot in Josh Martin's official NBA power ranking for Bleacher Report with a 9-1 winning record:
"So what if the Houston Rockets have played a soft schedule so far? They're beating the teams the league has put in front of them-aside from an 11-point loss to the Warriors, from which Dwight Howard was noticeably absent... And they've done so handily. Their first seven wins have come by an average of 14.3 points per game. Their offense ranks among the NBA's 10 most efficient while sticking to general manager Daryl Morey's analytics-driven dictates: all three-pointers (No. 1 in three-point makes and attempts, No. 3 in percentage) and free throws (No. 3 in free-throw attempts and free throws per field-goal attempt), no long twos (No. 30 in percentage of field-goal attempts between 16 feet and the three-point line)... More importantly, the Rockets have risen to the top of the defensive mountain, allowing a mere 93.7 points per 100 possessions and collecting the fifth-most rebounds by percentage... Houston has a number of cupcakes among its upcoming opponents, though a trip to Memphis on Monday should serve as an intriguing measuring stick for the Association's most dominant outfit thus far."
Meanwhile, the Grizzlies currently hold the No. 2 spot (out of 30 total teams), also with nine wins and only one loss. According to Martin:
"If not for Brandon Knight's late three-point play, the Memphis Grizzlies would be the NBA's lone undefeated team. Then again, if not for Courtney Lee's heroics against the Kings, the Grizzlies would be carrying two losses right now... Either way, Memphis is in marvelous shape: alone atop the wild Western Conference, with a top-five defense, a pair of fantastic bigs (i.e., Marc Gasol and Zach Randolph) and a surprisingly deep store of shooters off the bench... What could possibly make this team more interesting? How about a hefty helping of Kenyon Martin? And you thought the 'Grit-N-Grind' was difficult to deal with before..."
The game will be broadcasted live on local channel CSNH, but fans can also listen in on the radio at KOGT, KSIX, WNSR, and ESPN 92.9.
