#Rockets beat the Warriors, 106-96, hold Steph Curry to 3 pts (1-10 FG, 1-8 3ptFG). Houston is 52-27 & will clinch the no. 2 seed if they get 1 more win or the Lakers get 1 more loss. Houston can finish no lower than 3 seed. I’ve got postgame on @SpaceCityHN with Calvin – NEXT! – 10:57 PM

Steph Curry: three points, 1/10 FG, four turnovers. Went from his most torrid four-night stretch of the season to possibly his worst game. Warriors waving white flag. They’ll lose to Rockets and fall back into play-in danger. – 10:52 PM

Charged up end of the half between Warriors and Rockets. Included some Ime Udoka words toward Steph Curry as he left the court. Draymond Green had a technical and a tripping foul right before buzzer. Rockets just kept missing the free throws. – 9:39 PM

“[Steph Curry] should be up there with LeBron and Jordan.”
