Although we'd never say no to free basketball, Tuesday night's Rockets-Thunder season opener could have avoided a double overtime entirely had refs noticed Houston forward Kevin Durant seemingly calling for a timeout at the end of the first OT.
The Rockets had no timeouts left, so there would have been a technical foul called and OKC could have broken the tie and won without playing another five minutes. The team would go on to get the dub regardless, but that could have been a defining moment had Houston managed to walk away with it instead.
