The Rockets and Warriors face each other one last time
We’ve seen this movie before.
In 2018, the Houston Rockets worked their butts off to get the 1 seed in order to have homecourt advantage against the Kevin Durant Era Golden State Warriors. That series did go to Game 7, but the result didn’t go in the favor of the good guys.
Only a few players are left from that series, and they all play for Golden State. The Rockets have undergone a full rebuild since then. Only the owner remains, basically.
It’s incredibly impressive that Houston even forced a Game 7. They were left for dead after blowing Game 4 and going down 3-1. Tonight, they can complete a comeback that would exorcise a lot of demons for the franchise and its fanbase.
We’ll be in the Playback room tonight, so you should come join to watch the Rockets and talk about the game. Remember, we get a handful of VIP passes that we give out to anyone who wants to watch the game. No League Pass necessary!
