The Houston Rockets have been terrific against the Oklahoma City Thunder in the first round of NBA playoffs. They won both the games with a comfortable margin and look in pole position to clinch the NBA playoffs series.

It is worth noting that the Houston Rockets are missing star point guard Russell Westbrook who is out of the first-round playoffs series due to injury. Despite this, the Oklahoma City Thunder have not been able to capitalise on Russell Westbrook's absence as the Houston Rockets defence have troubled them throughout the series. 

The Houston Rockets are one of the favourites to win the western conference title and the NBA championship. Head coach Mike D'Antoni's small-ball lineup experiment has really worked well for the Houston Rockets until now. The Houston Rockets will rely on stars like James Harden and Russell Westbrook to achieve this objective.
