Rockets vs Warriors

Rockets vs Warriors : They say a series doesn’t start until a road team wins, and if there’s any truth to that cliche then the playoff series between the Golden State Warriors and Houston Rockets has yet to commence, as it stands tied with each team having held serve at home thus far.

Can the Warriors prevent this series from becoming another tortuous, drawn out, seven-game affair with a convincing win at Oracle on Wednesday night? Or should Dub Nation just accept that nothing’s gonna come easy this season?
