Lakers booed at home in 101-91 loss to Rockets
AARON Brooks scored a career-high 33 points as the Houston Rockets beat Los Angeles 101-91 last night, sending the the NBA champion Lakers to a second consecutive loss.
LA was coming off a 105-79 drubbing at Denver two nights earlier only to have another team they vanquished in last season's title run show them up at home, where they got booed.
David Andersen added a career-high 19 for the Rockets, who lost 103-102 at home in overtime in the teams' first meeting earlier this month.
Suns 101, Raptors 100
At Phoenix, Amare Stoudemire followed one of the worst games of his career with his best game of the season, scoring 30 points to lead the Suns over Toronto.
It was the Suns' 11th straight win over the Raptors, and their 13th in a row at home.
They are the only team in the league to score at least 100 points in every game this season and they have scored at least 100 in 30 straight home games.
Steve Nash had 23 points and nine assists, and Channing Frye added 20, hitting six 3-pointers. Chris Bosh led the Raptors with 25 points and 10 rebounds. Hedo Turkoglu scored 20 points, and Andrea Bargnani had 17.

Rodney Stuckey led the Pistons with 28 points, and Will Bynum had 27, including 17 in the fourth quarter. Ben Gordon, though, went 1 for 16 and missed a 3-pointer that would have tied it with 2 seconds left.

Chris Kaman added 25 points on 10-for-15 shooting and had seven rebounds for Los Angeles.
