Eric Gordon was the X-factor in the Rockets' lineup before the series, and he has now successfully bounced back from the shooting slump that limited his offense in the 10 games he played before this series. Coming into the Conference Finals, Gordon was shooting a putrid 31% from downtown, but those figures have improved after 2 good shooting games.

Gordon was tied with Harden as the team's top scorer on the night, and he also finished with a team-high +/- of +29 in 32 minutes of game time. D'Antoni fielded him for some minutes alongside both Paul and Harden, and he capitalized on the extended run he got with some nice buckets.

Gordon also shot 5 free throws and made all 5 of them, while he was the only Rocket to tally a block during this game. He brought his A-game on defense as well to round off what was a perfect night for him.
