Golden State Warriors 33, Houston Rockets 24 (Q2 11:33)
What’s the buzz on Twitter?

Warriors 33, Rockets 24 after 1. Warriors led by 14. Rockets briefly closed to within five but started missing 3s again. Warriors with almost as many 3s (8) as the Rockets have field goals (9). Rockets 1 of 8 on 3s. It appears, 3s are still worth more than 2s. – 8:39 PM

Weird first quarter from the Warriors. Defended well, made 11/17 shots and went 8/12 on 3s, but turned the ball over nine times in 12 minutes for 13 Rockets points. GSW up 33-24. – 8:37 PM

Warriors are up to 9 turnovers in the first quarter. It seriously feels like we’ve gone back to 2019 – 8:34 PM

Rockets are making up a little ground against the Warriors bench, but getting outscored 18-0 from behind the three-point line isn’t conducive to winning – 8:30 PM

Rockets going with the big (ish) frontcourt they have used in a few games lately with Jeff Green, Jabari Smith Jr. and Jock Landale in together. – 8:29 PM

Warriors 6 of 9 on 3s, Rockets 0 for 5. Only part of the reason they are having trouble keeping up. – 8:28 PM

Warriors up 19-6 in Houston early. Klay Thompson typically shoots it well in this building: 11 points on 4/6 FG the first six minutes. Two of his 3s have led to Ime Udoka timeouts. A lot of Dillon Brooks for the Rockets so far: 1/5 FG. – 8:22 PM

The Rockets best offensive possession was Jalen Green attacking a small crease in transition. They’ve been bad in the half court – 8:17 PM

Rockets open with VanVleet on Curry, though Ime Udoka mentioned that Brooks and Thompson will likely get turns on him, too, not counting all the usual switching. – 8:12 PM
