The Golden State Warriors have fallen back on their previous 3-1 lead in the first round against the Houston Rockets. They are now on the brink of elimination after another poor performance on Friday night. The night went worse, with Steph Curry and Jimmy Butler playing the majority of the minutes and still losing the Warriors vs. Rockets game.<\/p>
The Houston Rockets started the game well and continued their accurate shooting from the previous game. The Warriors lagged behind throughout the game, but they didn’t have a blowout deficit. Jimmy Butler was the only player on the Golden State side that made consistent buckets.<\/p>
Despite having a thin lead, the Rockets kept building post half-time thanks to costly turnovers from Steph Curry. On one hand, the Windy City Assassin kept bricking from beyond the arc and on the other hand, he kept giving away possession with weak hold and poor passes.<\/p>
