Regular Season Round 90: Minnesota T. - Houston R. 125-129

Date: January 24, 2011
Scorers such as Kevin Martin dream about nights against a "defense" like the Minnesota Timberwolves. The Wolves have a hard enough time guarding spot-up shooters on the perimeter. When they're facing a guy who can blow by them on the way to the rim and also get a 3-pointer off in the blink of an eye, they don't stand a chance. Martin scored 34 points and Shane Battier added a season-high 19 to lead the Houston Rockets to a 129-125 victory over the Timberwolves on Monday night. "We made it interesting, that's what we do as a team," said Martin, who topped 30 points for the third time in five games. "There's no easy win for us, ever. We fought with it, stayed with it, fought through a rough stretch and came out with a win." Luis Scola added 20 points and 12 rebounds for the Rockets, who beat a Western Conference team for the first time in their last eight tries. Houston's 13 straight wins over Minnesota tie the franchise record for longest winning streak against one opponent. Kevin Love had 24 points, 17 rebounds and seven assists and Wes Johnson added 19 points for the Timberwolves, who lost their fourth straight overall. *Courtesy of www.cbssports.com
