Kevin McHale has praised the Houston Rockets' "great sense" after they fought from behind to secure a win in game six of their Western Conference semi-final against the Los Angeles Clippers.
Needing to win to remain in the playoffs, the Rockets overturned a 19-point deficit midway through the third quarter to clinch a 119-107 victory.
The coach told ESPN: "That group just went out there and they just scrambled, they fought and they played their tails off on defense. They had a great sense about them that they were going to accomplish something."
The teams meet again on Sunday, with the winner of game seven progressing to the conference finals.
