Recap: Rockets vs Thunder (G4)

THE GUARDS OF OKC

If you haven't been paying close attention to this series, then we strongly suggest you start doing so IN A HURRY. This series has just gotten tasty. I'm talking the Thanksgiving spread that's been cooking inside the house for the last 8+ hours and it's finally time to feast. After the Rockets lead in this series 2-0, Oklahoma City has crawled back to even up this one at two games a piece. This has been in major thanks to the flat out impressive play from Chris Paul, Dennis Schroder, and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander who have all flipped the switch collectively to get the Thunder back into this series. 

HOUSTON COMES OUT BLAZING IN THE 3RD

After being tied at 60 before the start of the second half, the Houston Rockets came out of the gate on absolute fire. Houston would start out the 3rd quarter going 8 for 8 from downtown. But not so fast sports fans...the Thunder weren't going down that easy. What's even more impressive is that the Thunder battled back to only lose the third quarter by a score of 33-32. This series looks to be a barfght and it could go the distance.
