In the first round of the Western Conference of the NBA playoffs, the Rockets returned to their home court today to face the Warriors. After winning two home games in a row, the Warriors have already got the match point 3-1, while the Rockets have no way out. Kuminga and Tate will miss the game.

At the beginning of the game, the Rockets were in high spirits. Jalen Green scored consecutively to open the game, but he returned to the locker room for examination due to knee discomfort. Fortunately, Van Vleet took over the game and hit consecutive three-pointers to widen the gap to double digits. The Rockets scored 40 points in a single quarter. The Warriors made mistakes and did not score in the first five minutes of the second quarter. The Rockets launched a 14-0 offensive to widen the gap to 30 points. Although the Warriors made adjustments afterwards, the effect was not great. The gap was still 27 points at the end of the half. In the second half, the Warriors had no chance to close the score in half a quarter. Kerr also replaced the main players one and a half quarters in advance and chose to give up. In the last quarter, the Warriors made a deep rotation and played a 12-2 offensive to catch up to within 20 points. The Rockets barely stabilized the situation after getting back the main players. Shen Jing, Spencer and Davis were given technical fouls due to conflicts, and Spencer was even expelled. In the end, the Rockets easily defeated the Warriors and chased the big score to 2-3.
