RE: Rockets Escape Oracle With Exhilarating Win To Tie Series 2-2
If they (Houston) keeps defending like that they got a real shot at pulling it off. We all know they can score with the Warriors...its just maintaining that defensive intensity...
Yea, the Rockets have won in this series when they kick it up a notch on defense! But in Game 3 they were playing pretty well on defense and then Warriors just kept bombing them from deep. They still need to pray that Golden State misses their shots hahaha but I'm definitely impressed with how they've stepped up the D.
Houston did a better job last night playing within their system. The Warriors relied to heavily on isolation plays down the stretch, which left them taking too many tough contested jumpers.
Both Chris Paul and James Harden will have to play well in game 5 if they want a similar result. Unfortunately, for them that has not been a common occurrence this season. Luckily for them though they will have home court advantage, which may be enough to put the Warriors on the brink of elimination.
