Next up for Oladipo is a showdown with Harden, the reigning NBA MVP. Harden missed three games last week due to a hamstring injury, but returned in Houston's 96-88 victory over Chicago on Saturday, registering 25 points, seven assists, and four steals in 33 minutes.
The Rockets won an NBA-best 65 games a year ago, but have sputtered out of the gates this season. Saturday's victory improved their record to just 3-5, though the injury to Harden and a two-game suspension to point guard Chris Paul have contributed to that slow start.

Rockets record is misleading because of the games missed by Harden and Paul. Going to be a tough one tonight.

Another great opportunity for the guys, hopefully we are able to bring our A game tonite. It would be nice to get Turner going from outside, pulling Capela away from the bucket and opening up driving lanes.

We should've won this one. Miseducation opportunities when they continued to turn the ball over and poor FT.
Vic is a beast in the clutch.

Missed free throws and a few bad calls. No respect that's the problem, no respect.

More than anything, It was James Harden being James Harden that did us in.

Dag nab it. Had a solid chance to get a win over a very quality opponent. I don't care what their record says.
