It was the Golden State Warriors who draws first blood in the series by beating the top seed in the Western Conference the Houston Rockets 119-106. Kevin Durant continues to deliver in the postseason for the Warriors as he tally with 37 points. Stephen Curry had a bad game since he is defended well by the Houston Rockets. But his Co-Splash Brother Klay Thompson scored 28 points, scoring and defending well the stars of Houston Rockets. Klay is indeed a great two way player.
Kevin Durant is assigned to guard James Harden, an all-star match-up. Both players are great and very effective in their playing style. With this, Harden had a better game scoring wise with 41 points. But Durant had the final laugh since he lead the Warriors in winning the game and stole the home court advantage of the series.
Based on what I see, if the Rockets want to win this series they have to move the ball, they have to play well. Don't stick to isolation eventhough it is effective in Harden's skills but in the late game Harden will get tired and the Warriors will grab that opportunity to score an easy buckets.
