⚡The rivalry is real...ish
Last time these teams met, we knew the Rockets were on their way as a Thunder on-court rival. Since Oklahoma City beat them by 19 last month, Houston has gone 9-2 and announced themselves as one of the best Western Conference teams. OKC is ready for the rivalry, will Houston start making it a competitive one?
