Rockets coach Kelvin Sampson details his strategy on "Hack a Dwight"
"It has to be circumstantial. That was the right time to do it for a couple reasons. One, it gets the ball out of Kobe's hands. There's not a better 4th quarter player in this league than Kobe. They set the rhythm. It was hard for us to get them out of that rhythm. I thought our defense the last 16 minutes of the game was better. They're such a rhythm team. It [Hack a Dwight] comes under the caegory 'you do what you have to do to win the game."
