ABOUT HOUSTON

The Wolves' prize for their first postseason appearance since 2004? The league's best team. Houston, in its first season with a backcourt of James Harden and Chris Paul, entered Wednesday night's game at Sacramento with a 65-16 record. Harden is the league's leading scorer this season, the only player to average at least 30 points per game (30.4). The Rockets went 4-0 vs. the Wolves, winning those four games by an average margin of 15.8 points per game.
