In a wild game of two halves, the Golden State Warriors beat the Houston Rockets 101-92 in a winner-take-all Game 7. While Houston, who was obsessed with beating Golden State, might have fallen short, they did give the Cleveland Cavaliers the blueprint to success.
For starters, let’s take a second and bask in the fact that the Rockets lost by nine yet missed 27 straight threes along with shooting just 15.9% from deep. On top of that, Rockets superstar James Harden was clearly robbed of three three-point shooting fouls, one of which he banked in yet was absurdly called on the ground.
