The Champion is in danger! Rockets beat Warriors and close to Finals

[Juppitèr]

The Houston Rockets defeated the Golden State Warriors in the fifth game of the NBA Western Conference Final on Thursday, 98-94 , to take a 3-2 favor in the series.

With this victory, the Texans are a triumph of playing the Finals and dethrone the current Champions , who missed the injured Andre Iguodala and succumbed in a match marked by tension, intensity and maximum equality.

Despite the victory, Chris Paul , after a masterful last quarter, had to leave the game ahead of time and his participation in the sixth game on Saturday is in the air.

The clash entered the last few bars fully matched, but the Warriors missed several free throws and Draymond Green lost the ball in the penultimate visiting possession to bury the hopes of the defending champions. Golden State had to flip the marker over the horn, but their players missed at the right time.

Kevin Durant scored 29 points, Draymond Green contributed 12 points and 15 rebounds, Klay Thompson had 23 points and Stephen Curry had 22 points, seven rebounds and six assists. However, Golden State did not reach it and life will be played before its public.

CP3 finished with 20 points, seven rebounds and six assists. Of its total units, 18 were in the second half. James Harden accumulated 19 points, three rebounds and four assists.
