Houston vs. Oklahoma City

The Houston Rockets have taken a commanding, 2-0 lead in their opening round series vs. the Oklahoma City Thunder. The Rockets are known for explosive offense, but that hasn't been how these games have gone. The Rockets, who have played little in the way of defense on the season, have held Oklahoma City to 103 points per game. I would expect the Rockets defense to be ready for a desperate Oklahoma City team to come out firing, and the Thunder also know they have to send an early defensive message or this series is going to get away from them. Play the first half UNDER in this one.
