On May 5, the Warriors defeated the Rockets 103-89 in the tiebreak battle, thus eliminating their opponents 4-3 to reach the Western Conference semi-finals. Before the game, the outside world was not optimistic about the Warriors, after all, the Rockets' Twin Towers restrained the Warriors in the last game. The Warriors still play tiebreak in the Rockets' territory. However, in this battle, the Warriors burst out with huge energy, especially Hilder turned into a surprise and made a crazy three-pointer, which caught the Rockets off guard.

Hilder scored 33 points in the whole game, made 12 of 15 shots, and made 9 of 11 three-pointers, with super high offensive efficiency. There is no doubt that he is the number one hero for the Warriors to win this battle. In an interview after the game, Hilder talked about the Warriors' pre-match preparations: "To be honest, when I first arrived in Houston yesterday, Zhu Meng and Curry led the whole team to a very infectious meeting. From that moment on, I completely entered the state of fighting and regained my fighting spirit. That meeting was so exciting that everyone had goosebumps. We all know what it means when the decisive battle comes. This meeting came too timely."

The brave one won when we meet on a narrow road. Curry and Zhu Meng inspired the energy of the players through the meeting. Hilder scored only 4 points in the fifth game, and even less than a single point in the sixth game. But in the battle of life and death, the Warriors need Hilde. Cole continued to put him in the starting lineup, and he rebuilds confidence with the inspiration of Curry and Dream Chasing.
Especially after quickly hitting a three-pointer in the first quarter, he became more and more braver in the battle, helping the Warriors expand their lead. In contrast, although the Rockets are fighting at home, the team's preparations for this battle are somewhat insufficient and there is no plan to deal with the Warriors' surprise attack.

Curry and Zhu Meng showed their meticulous side, knowing that the battle of life and death must rely on the strength of the team. Curry felt bad in the first half in this game, but fortunately, Hild, Butler and Zhumeng all performed well on the offensive end. In the second half, Curry ushered in an explosion, especially in the final quarter, which allowed the team to firmly control the situation.
Hilde praised Curry for attracting defense after the game and creating opportunities for his teammates. He said: "Curry has attracted so much defensive attention. I just need to stay awake. Those big opens must be shot, and those balls that are strictly guarded must also be shot against the defense, because that is the rhythm of the game. Just stick to the action. It is right to keep shooting. It is precisely because of this trust tonight that I can seize the opportunity and hit those key balls steadily."

Curry praised Butler's help to the team after the game: "He is the reason why we can get here. In February, we ranked 10th in the West. It was very urgent at the time and maybe we couldn't even make the playoffs." In a sense, Warriors general manager Dunleavy Jr. was also a great hero. He introduced Hilder and Butler and became the two heroes of the Warriors' entry into the second round.
