The Golden State Warriors and the Houston Rockets will have their sixth battle of the ongoing playoff series at Chase Center on Friday, May 2

The second-seeded Houston Rockets are having an inconsistent season, securing a record of 4-6 in their last ten games. The Rockets were about to face elimination in the playoffs but bounced back with their strongest performance in Game 5 against the Warriors. Led by Fred VanVleet, Amen Thompson, and Dillon Brooks’ combined double-scoring figures, Houston demonstrated a significant comeback and achieved a 131-116 victory.

On the other hand, the seventh-seeded Warriors are having a promising season, with 6-4 from their last 10 games. Despite having the upper hand in the playoff journey, they struggled in the recent game. Mosses Moody contributed 25 bench points and a playoff record 76 bench points, while Stephen Curry struggled with his offensive play. Moreover, Jimmy Butler was not up to the mark in his return.

The upcoming Game 6 between the Rockets and Warriors will be highly intense as both teams are in high spirits. Houston will be looking to carry their recent victory momentum, showing renewed determination and confidence with their balanced roster. Meanwhile, the Warriors will have an advantage on the home court, where they play well traditionally, even in high-pressure situations. The experience of Stephen Curry and the coach, Steve Kerr, could be key to their success; however, the Rockets’ defensive depth and shooting ability make the upcoming game a highly contested battle.
