Have to believe the Thunder can keep this game close trying to stave off elimination after having the Rockets edge them out in Oklahoma City this past Sunday.
Houston has failed to cover in 10 of its last 13 games. Only once during their last 13 games have the Rockets won by more than seven points.
Russell Westbrook is playing at the top of his game, while James Harden is dealing with an ankle injury. Harden was held to 16 points on 5-of-16 shooting from the floor on Sunday. He missed all seven of his 3-point shots. The Rockets, though, were bailed out by 34-year-old Nene, who scored 28 points on 12-of-12 shooting from the field.
The Thunder's role players are due to play much better especially against such a vulnerable defense as the Rockets. Victor Oladipo, Steven Adams, Enes Kanter and Andre Roberson are all better than they've show so far in the series.
