Houston Rockets vs 76ers Live Stream: How to Watch NBA Basketball Free Online (TV Schedule, Start Time)

The Houston Rockets (48-22) will face off against the Philadelphia 76ers (15-56) at the Toyota Center tonight in Houston.

The Rockets will be the big favorites for tonight's game, having one of the most impressive records in the NBA so far this season.

The game will start at 8:00 p.m. ET and can be watched online through live stream via the link provided below (free for subscribers).

The Rockets look to help the horrible 76ers make history tonight when they battle in the Lone Star State. If the Rockets beat the 76ers, Philadelphia would match the worst losing streak in NBA history with 26 consecutive defeats. The record was set by the Cleveland Cavaliers back in 2010-11 season.

The 76ers' 25th straight defeat was handed out by the San Antonio Spurs on Monday night by a final score of 113-91, and with the Rockets flying high no-one realistically gives the 76ers any hope of avoiding the unwanted record.

"It's those short-term, real pains for what we hope will be a bunch of long-term gains," said 76ers head coach Brett Brown to reporters. "This period of time is not pleasant for any of us. But it's necessary."

The Houston Rockets are currently on a 4 game winning streak, and are currently in 4th place in the Western Conference standings.

Most recently the Rockets defeated the Charlotte Bobcats by a final score of 100-89, with Harden scored 31 points in the victory.

"We just want to prepare for the playoffs," said James Harden after the game to reporters. "Our entire game needs to go to another level, defensively and offensively. Being consistent with sharing the basketball, and defensively, being consistent with helping each other out."
