Later tonight James Harden and the Houston Rockets will take battle against the high-powered Oklahoma City Thunder.
This is game 2 of the first round series, in which the Thunder have a 1-0 lead, after winning game one undisputed. The Thunder were able to contain Harden, completely locking down the rest of the Rockets and had a balanced offensive attack from Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook.
To make this series competitive at all, the Rockets have to win game two. It will prove to be incredibly difficult because they just don’t match up that well against the Thunder, and Harden can only do so much. If they have any chance in this one, role players such as Jeremy Lin and Chandler Parsons must step up and hit some shots. If they do and keep it close, you better believe Harden will take over in the 4th quarter, giving them as good a shot as anyone to win a game.
Tune into game 2 of the Rockets vs. Thunder tonight at 7 EST on TNT.
