Oklahoma City beat Denver 117-93 on Sunday as the Thunder are off to a 3-0 start under new coach Billy Donovan, and Kevin Durant is showing no signs of the foot injury that has plagued him the last couple years. Durant scored 30 points in 28 minutes against the Nuggets, and Russell Westbrook is averaging 32 points while shooting 50 percent from the field. The entire Thunder team has a 52.3 field goal percentage. Conversely, Houston is shooting only 37.1 percent and is 0-3 while losing each game by exactly 20 points. The Rockets poor preseason play has carried over into the regular season. James Harden was 0-for-10 beyond-the-arc in a 109-89 loss at Miami on Sunday and Harden is 12-for-54 from the field on the season. Dwight Howard is scheduled to play tonight and Terrence Jones is questionable with an eyelid laceration. This is a low number considering the way these teams have performed. Play the Thunder.
