While the Houston Rockets’ defense has consistently ranked among the NBA’s elite since trading James Harden in mid-January, it’s their offense that has turned the most heads in recent days.

In Monday’s blowout win at Oklahoma City, the Rockets set a franchise record with 28 made 3-pointers in 52 attempts (53.8%), and they tied for the third-highest-scoring quarter in team history with 48 points, which they also did Saturday in New Orleans. In Monday’s case, Houston tied the all-time NBA record with 11 treys in a quarter.

Now, courtesy of the NBA’s scheduling approach for the 2020-21 season to minimize travel amid the COVID-19 pandemic, Houston will try to defeat the Thunder a second time in three days.

Besides the fact Oklahoma City (8-11) certainly wants revenge after Monday’s laugher, the Rockets could also have a tougher time Wednesday due to the absence of their floor general. John Wall, who hit 4-of-5 from 3-point range (80.0%) on Monday, is sitting out for planned maintenance on the first night of a back-to-back for the Rockets. Former Sixth Man of the Year Eric Gordon, who led Houston in scoring and 3-pointers in the first game, is the most likely candidate to take Wall’s starting spot.

Then again, the Thunder will also be short-handed, since leading scorer Shai Gilgeous-Alexander is out with a left knee sprain.

Advice and prediction

The Rockets were far better than the Thunder on Monday, and advanced metrics for the 2020-21 season suggest they are the clearly superior team, overall. That said, Houston will be without Wall on Wednesday, and a “regression to the mean” performance from 3-point range wouldn’t be a shock after shooting so well in consecutive games.

With Gilgeous-Alexander out for Oklahoma City, the Rockets should have enough buffer, even if there is an off shooting night. But it shouldn’t be a surprise to see a closer margin of victory and fewer points on Wednesday.
