Tip-Off Time: 7 p.m. CT Television: Fox Sports Oklahoma Thunder Status OKC kicked off the first of its three mini-series on Monday against the Rockets. In that game, Houston erupted out of the gates by knocking down 11 3-pointers and pouring in 48 points in the first quarter. The outburst from Houston set the tone for the game as the Thunder played uphill the rest of the night, despite runs to chip away at the lead. “It's a 48-minute game and it requires a high level of competitiveness and focus and execution through all 48,” said Thunder head coach Mark Daigneault. “That's why it's hard to play in the NBA and we need to continue to try to develop that consistency starting with the jump.”
