Let’s be clear, this Houston Rockets  overtime victory was the best win of the season and came in spite of James Harden who almost gave the game away repeatedly today. This continues the winning streak to 3 games in a row.

Trevor Ariza was the hero of the day hitting shots to force overtime and holding Paul George in check specifically in the final frame and overtime to ensure the Rockets victory.
