After Action Report
In Golden State, the Warriors knocked off the Rockets 101-99. The better team simply showed up tonight. Second-chance points piled up for the Warriors; the Warriors came in with something to prove after a loss. The Rockets rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.
