In the Houston Rockets matchup with the Oklahoma City Thunder on Saturday night, everything was at stake, at least for OKC.
A loss would’ve sent Oklahoma City down to the ninth seed, forcing them to win their final two games to make the playoffs. Their entire season was on the line, and they stepped up and won a huge game in Houston.
On the other hand, the Rockets didn’t have much to play for, and it showed. The Thunder were playing very tough defense and diving after every loose ball, whereas Houston coasted throughout the game.
Obviously, Houston has the No.
