The Rockets sent the Thunder home last season, and now the Thunder will be back for revenge on Christmas Day, as the Rockets will host the Thunder on December 25th.
This will be the tenth time the Rockets have played on Christmas Day, and the fourth time since 2012, the year James Harden joined the Rockets. This is the Thunder’s eighth straight Christmas Day game, dating back all the way to 2010.
It is not much of a surprise that the Rockets scored a Christmas game, however the timing of it is very interesting.
