    Westbrook's fouling-out is advantage OKC.

    Gallinari didn't have position. But I'll take that offensive foul on Westbrick.

    These are the type of games the media tries to bury when they try to force Paul George for MVP.

    Harden or Giannis at their worst are not even close to how trash PG was tonight

    Another perfect night in the association. UTA, OKC, and DEN all lose.

    Rockets alone in 3rd -- and only 2 losses behind DEN with another H2H.

    The last 10 days or so could have not possibly been any better in regards to the Rockets seeding.

    Pretty much a perfect night for the Rockets.

    Utah loses which at least eliminates them from competing in this 3-5 race for now.
    OKC loses so that gives us a good game cushion...
    and Denver loses, unlikely we catch them but hey...if they go on a little losing streak then sure.

    Thunder fans were talking shyt to rockets fans when cp3 and harden both fouled out in LA, now look, Westbrook and PG both foul out.

    He's been trash in his last 5 games. He's definitely out of the MVP race.

    Denver’s got a lot of road games left and they aren’t strong away from home. Also, starting 3/24, they finish with 9 of their last 11 against teams that will be in the playoffs. This includes a brutal back-to-back on March 28th/29th when they play at Houston and at OKC.

    It will be tough, but if Rockets can keep chipping away and beat Denver at the end of the month, they have a good shot of passing Denver in April.

    On the Bill Simmons podcast, KOC hinted Paul George may have a rotator cuff injury and he's trying to play through it.

    This may be big concern for OKC during this last stretch before the playoffs.
