On Sunday, Houston Rockets first-year head coach Stephen Silas could barely control his emotions during his postgame press conference moments after his team had lost its 20th straight game.
On Monday night, those frustrations came to an end as Silas and the Rockets went out on their home floor and snapped their losing streak by beating the Toronto Raptors, 117-99.
Now that must have felt pretty darn awesome.
John Wall led the way for Houston, as he finished with a tripe-double (19 points, 11 rebounds, and 10 assists).
After the final whistle Wall found his head coach and the two shared a big hug, which was pretty great:

Silas was much happier in this press conference:
