REGULATORS REPORT Game #29 of 82...I wonder what @JHarden13 will think of his Old Mates now...BUSINESs is BUSINESS as the THUNDER put a 30 Spot on #REDnation and no Free CARL's Jr Tonight in ROCKET City, Texas

Not soon after the Intros at a raucous Toyota Center in Downtown Houston the visiting OKC Thunder aka the Regulators wasted no time this time with former Teammate James Harden. The Thunder used a 37-24 2nd Frame Advantage to run away with the Victory as Uncle Russ 28 points, 8 helpers, and 8 off the Glass. His Partner in Crime William H. Durant (not William H. Bonney...aka Billy the Kid) goes for 26 points as the Thunder cruise to a 124-94 victory.

The Rockets were in it until the 2nd Frame when the Thunder hit Astro Boy Status and shot to Overdrive. Harden didn't disappoint as he gets 25 and Twin Morris adds 24 points and 6 boards. But the Rockets just got beat by the #1 Team in the West as the Regulators start to separate themselves from the Pretenders to the Heat Throne.

The Rockets don't have to look far as they were out rebounded by +17 and the Game was sloppy at best with a combined 45v Turnovers. Not to be forgotten in all this Harden Stuff but former Rocket Kevin Martin went for a Quiet 19 points with Five Money Balls added to that list. The Thunder are putting it together for the All-=Star Break Run and look for them to be way north of 40 Wins and closer to 50.

The Rockets fall to 16-14 after a 7-1 in their last Eight have now dropped Two in a Row. The Regulators are 23-6 on the 2012-13 Season and 8-2 in their Last 10 as they look the Team to Beat in the West...or you knew that right?
