ORLANDO - Dennis Schroder converted a key turnover into a lay-up and the Oklahoma City Thunder evened their National Basketball Association Western Conference first-round play-off series with a 117-114 victory in Game 4 over the Houston Rockets.
Oklahoma City erased a 15-point, third-quarter deficit to post a second consecutive victory and square the series at two games apiece with Game 5 set for Wednesday at The Field House. Houston started the third quarter 8 of 8 from behind the arc and led 88-73 when Jeff Green scored off a Harden assist with 5min 51sec left in the period. But the Rockets then went ice cold, missing 20 of their ensuing 23 from deep as Oklahoma City roared back, starting with a 12-0 blitz to end the third, punctuated by a Schroder 31-foot buzzer-beating three-pointer.
Both teams raced to scorching shooting starts only to cool dramatically in the second quarter. The Rockets converted 8-of-15 three-pointers in the first quarter, including a 3 of 3 start from Harden, but carried a modest 37-35 lead into the second after the Thunder drilled 6 of 10 from deep.
