Rockets End Warriors 16-Game Home Playoff Win Streak

Rockets+End+Warriors+16-Game+Home+Playoff+Win+Streak

The Rockets are for real, and they showed that after defeating the Warriors at home Tuesday night, by a score of 95-92. The duo of Harden and Paul combined for 57, with Harden scoring 30, while Paul added 27. The Rockets clamped down on the Warriors, holding them to 92 points, 21 under their season average. Clint Capela came up big for Houston by grabbing 13 boards in just the 24 minutes he played.

 

The duo of Durant and Curry put up 55 combined points, but that wasn’t enough to take the series to a 3-1 lead for the Dubs. Klay Thompson had a rough night, shooting 4 of 13 from the field for just 10 points. If the Warriors want to win this series, they will have to be more efficient from the field, as they only shot 39% last night.

 

Game 5 will be a huge game in this series, as it goes back to Houston, with a 9:00 PM start tonight. The key for the Rockets will be to out rebound the Warriors, as well as having to out work them on the defensive end. If the Warriors want to pull one out on the road, they need to shoot more efficiently and play more as a unit.
