The James Harden era for the Rockets has not always been fun and games. It was marked by extreme inconsistencies before they finally matured into a Western Conference force.

In a game between the Rockets and the Thunder in 2014, in the first half, the Rockets outscored the Thunder 73-59. In one of the worst cases of reversal, they only managed 19 points in the entire second half, losing the game 104-92 as a result.

Fun fact: The Thunder shot worse in the second half of the game (42.5%) than they did in the first (50.0). The Rockets were just unable to make a shot and ended up setting an unwanted NBA record for the biggest point differential between halves.
