Ryan Anderson and his Rockets teammates shot poorly from behind the 3-point arc Tuesday night, but Houston still mustered enough offense to beat the Thunder, 105-99.
The Rockets likely will need to shoot better than 6-for-37 (16 percent) from 3-point range in the next round against the Spurs or Grizzlies if they are going to advance another round.
For now, however, they get some extra rest. That should help them get their legs under them and aid their long distance shooting.
