Oklahoma City pulled out a 115-113 win on Friday night as Russell Westbrook had 32 points, 13 rebounds and 11 assists and the Thunder shot a blistering 55.4 percent. James Harden scored 44 for the Rockets, who shot 45.8 percent. The Thunder led 65-58 at halftime and both teams should come out with a better defensive effort in the first half. The Thunder had gone UNDER five straight games before the last two went OVER, and the Rockets had stayed UNDER four of six. Houston is 9-4-1 UNDER its last 14 road games and Oklahoma City nine of its last 11 when playing on one day of rest. The Thunder's shooting should cool off from Friday's performance. Play this game to stay UNDER in the first half.
