Rockets 111, Pistons 104: Kevin Durant sets tone on road

from Rockets LaunchPod · host Ben DuBose

As the second half of their regular season begins, the Rockets are 15-3 at home and 12-13 on the road. But their latest road win, which came Friday at Detroit on night two of a back-to-back, was perhaps their most impressive of the entire 2025-26 campaign.The Rockets (27-16) and Pistons (32-11) remain at No. 4 and No. 1, respectively, in the Western and Eastern Conference standings.Hosted by Ben DuBose and Dave Hardisty, Friday’s “ClutchFans Live” postgame show breaks down all the key storylines from that statement victory. Topics include the physical and mental dominance of Kevin Durant; a somewhat underwhelming night on defense from Alperen Sengun; and promising signs from the likes of Amen Thompson, Jabari Smith Jr., and Reed Sheppard.This episode can also be viewed in video form here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DKBQOSCDeJk Support our partners and sponsors!
