The Golden State Warriors could not close out their opening-round series against the Houston Rockets on their home floor in San Francisco. A completely tepid offense in the opening stages of the fourth quarter allowed the Rockets to build a final lead that wound up being insurmountable for Golden State. Next up? Game 7 on the road in Houston.
While the season is far from done for the Warriors—who at one point led this series three games to one—Houston certainly has the momentum and home court on its side (though that home court factor for Game 7s has mysteriously disappeared in recent years).
