When it comes to excitement in basketball, it’s tough to beat a good overtime game. A narrow win or crushing loss all comes down to just five minutes of play after 48 minutes of neither team bending. The Houston Rockets have had their share of overtime thrillers, some of which took multiple extra sessions to decide a winner.
For the most part, the Rockets have been able to avoid needing overtime this season, with their only two happening against the San Antonio Spurs in a double-overtime loss and an overtime win in Boston.
Over the years, though, the Rockets have had some thrilling games that have provided fans with over a full quarter’s worth of extra game time.
