Completely in danger! The Warriors were dragged into tiebreak, and the Rockets were in sight

6:26am, 10 May 2025Basketball

This game is very nervous for both sides. The Warriors once led the Rockets with a total score of 3-1. They held 3 match points and were very likely to win directly. However, in the G5 series, the Warriors did not seize the opportunity, and it could even be said that they deliberately let the Rockets go, giving the opponent the opportunity to "let the tiger back to the mountain".

The G6 held today is still a life-and-death battle for the Rockets, but they showed confidence in winning and cracked the Warriors' transformation.

Warriors head coach Cole took the initiative to change the team. He hoped to speed up further and release the team's scoring firepower, but things went against their expectations. The team's offense was still focused on Curry and Butler. Podjemski, who was highly anticipated, scored no points in the first half and fell into a downturn.

In this case, the Rockets will naturally not be polite. They played very strongly and continued to expand their lead. In the third quarter, the Warriors woke up from a dream. They realized that if they were still behind in a big way, their core lineup would be ineffective in the fourth quarter and they would probably lose the chance to win, so they chased the points with all their strength, and Podjemsky also scored 8 points in a single quarter.

But in the fourth quarter, the main players of the Warriors finally overdrawn. They made 15 shots in the first 8 minutes, and only Drummond Green and Butler joined hands to score 5 points, and were hit by the Rockets 20 points. So the situation was hopeless, and they lost to the Rockets 107-115 and were dragged into the tiebreak battle.

I have to say that the Warriors are playing big, they should have won in G5 and ended this round of the series, but now they are forced to enter the final game and have to play away in Houston, which is very dangerous.
