Houston Rocket's pounding basketball

There is a reason  why Rocket  has  an ability to coming from behind and somehow  got double digit win. It's the ability of the two towers to deliver  48 minutes punishment to opposing front court. Mchale has peculiar rotation in the end of third quarter and the start of the fourth.
Instead of  going with the relatively better player in Howard,  Mchale goes with Asik. Opposing coach has 2 options.first option put  a back up center and watch Asik eat him  alive. Second  option  stick with the starting center to fight toe to toe with Asik.  Here is the catch, a relatively  fresh Dwight Howard will check in for Omer Asik and dominate. the opposin center will think " I can handle Asik" then  Howard comes in "you got to be joking".
It's like how lions hunt. The pack  attack  its prey until  the prey is dying, then  the alpha male  come in for the kill. Watching Rockets is still like year. Harden-asik's screen combo  to hold the lead,/ dig Rocket out of hole .  It's like  Howard is a mega sub.  Iwith this rotation  Howard is in for a career year, so is Asik if he  can average 30 minutes.
