Each team has shown what they can do in the first half, the Houston Rockets had a big first quarter where they outscored the Memphis Grizzlies 30-19. However, the second quarter belonged to the Grizzlies who outscored the Rockets by 10, so at the half the Rockets lead only 49-48.

Goran Dragic and Courtney Lee are leading the Rockets in scoring with 14 and 13 points each, and after that the scoring is spread out evenly between the rest of the team.

The Grizzlies have three players who have scored 10 or more points with Rudy Gay and Marc Gasol each with 10, and then there is O.J. Mayo who is leading the Grizzlies with 11 points and has a pair of steals.
