"Je m'éclate depuis le début de la saison, même lorsque l'on perd. On a un groupe spécial, du staff jusqu'aux joueurs, qui vient bien et profite de cette bonne période", s'est félicité James Harden sur NBA.com.Si le match était serré jusqu'à la mi-temps, les joueurs de Terry Stotts ont pris un bouillon dès le retour des vestiaires et n'ont jamais pu revenir. Lillard et McCollum ont combiné 44 points, mais le match de ce dernier a été plus abouti (11/19). Voilà les Rockets 6e, avec un bilan similaire à celui d'OKC. Portland n'est pas loin, à la 8e place.
