Two of the Western Conference’s best teams, the Houston Rockets and OKC Thunder both have seen immense success against the Golden State Warriors this season. However, in their closest matchups until the postseason, the Warriors again proved why they’re the back-to-back champs.
Without superstar Kevin Durant, the Warriors, as they always do, adjusted flawlessly. What they’ve done is involved DeMarcus Cousins, throwing him in the post and allowing him to command much of the offense.
That’s the reason why Cousins led the team in assists for the second straight game. Ending the game with 12 points, eight rebounds and six assists, Cousins had yet another dominant game on the offensive end.
