The Houston Rockets have forced the Golden State Warriors to a game 6 after a blunt victory on Wednesday. Golden State still has an advantage for the confrontation between Warriors and Rockets on Friday, since they lead the 3-2 series and have a local advantage.
Previous of the Golden State Warriors
The Warriors of Steve Kerr had one of their worst performances of the series in game 5. Their headlines barely had an impact and could not find rhythm in the game. On the other hand, the Rockets were binding with unusual precision, expanding the advantage as never before in the playoff series between Warriors and Rockets.
For the first time in the history of the NBA, the headlines of the Golden State Warriors recorded less than 50 points. Following the trend, Steve Kerr withdrew his headlines in the third quarter. The Rockets, on the other hand, were forced to keep their title quintet despite a great advantage. This was due to the fact that the Warriors bench almost achieved a trace based on effort in the quarter quarter.
Previous Houston Rockets
The local team had an extraordinary match, since the precision of its headlines was first level. A day when everything went well and fit perfectly. Fred Vanvleet scored 26 points with an accuracy of 4-6 from beyond the arch. Even Amen Thompson, who had been low performance, scored 25 points with an 8-12 accuracy in field shots. The Houston Rockets dominated game 5 with a 131-116 victory.

This suggests that Curry is not completely 100 percent, but the crucial game 6. Jonathan Kumina is still expected to play, who was out of illness on Wednesday, will return to action for game 6.
Houston Rockets
Jock Landale is out due to a knee injury and has been ruled out for game 6 against the Golden State Warriors. Jae’sean Tate is out due to an ankle injury and is not expected to return before the next season. Its rehabilitation schedule is still unknown.
