Los Golden State Warriors They achieved one of the unexpected results of the first playoff games winning and stealing the field advantage of the Houston Rockets. The combination of Stephen Curry con Jimmy Butler It was lethal for young and inexperienced Rockets. But the Warriors They are very righteous of troops and if you take away one of those two pieces the castle falls apart. That has happened today. The first quarter had not yet ended when, in the fight for a rebound, Butler It was on top of Amen Thompson falling totally unbalanced and taking a tremendous blow to the pelvis. The escort left not to return and Rockets the game made their victory (109-94).
The game was again physical, with piques and several techniques at the end of the meeting, and with the Warriors making rubber continuously. In the second quarter They already lost 20but significantly reduced the difference in the third with Stephen Curry and a Pat Spencer (9 points) who Steve Kerr He had to give the opportunity. Also to the defenestrate Jonathan Kuminga. Apart from the loss of Butlerlos Warriors They had a Brandin Podłoścsky under minimum due to stomach problems. Also in the last quarter they trimmed a wide local difference. In both cases, the attempts were ended in the same way, with Jalen Green plugging.
The escort of the Rockets The bad taste of the first game was removed, its premiere in the playoffs, in which He stayed at 7 points with a 3/15 in shots. Today was a completely different movie: 38 goals, 8 triples (2 more than all rockets in the first game), 6 assists, 3 robberies… game of the young player, well seconded by Alperen Segun (17+16+7), Dillon Brooks (16 points) y Tari Eason (14 and 6 assists). The local advantage in the rebound (47-33) It was another of the keys to the result.
Los Warriors They still have field advantage and the next two games are played in San Francisco. But their options hit a thread. Throughout today they will test Butler To know the scope of the injury. If the escort has to miss some time and the bay team is forced to overcome the tie without it, the mission would become almost impossible.
