The matchup against Houston is a tough one; when the Rockets are at home, they have given up the 2nd-least points per game in the NBA to the other team's starting PGs over the last 10 games (12.8).The Thunder are expected to suffer a reduction in possessions today from sharing the court with the least up-tempo pace-of-play offense in the NBA over the last 25 games (the Rockets).Offensive rebounds preserve possession and bring about further chances for scoring and assists, but the Oklahoma City Thunder grade out 1stworst in in the league on the road with only 9.1 offensive boards per game this year.Over the last 10 games when they are the visiting squad, the other team's starting PGs have attempted 1.7 foul shots per game (lowest in the NBA) against the Houston Rockets, finding it difficult to get to the free-throw line.
