The Warriors will face the Rockets…
The Warriors will face the Rockets in the 1st round of the playoffs...
And it's been a lop-sided matchup over the past decade.
Since 2015, the Warriors are 4-0 in playoff series against Houston:
2015 Playoffs:
Warriors win, 4-1
2016 Playoffs:
Warriors win, 4-1
2018 Playoffs:
Warriors win, 4-3
2019 Playoffs:
Warriors win, 4-2
And there's plenty of history between the 2 teams.
There's the CP3 injury in 2018, when the Rockets had the Warriors on the brink of elimination. Then the Rockets' infamous 27 straight missed 3s in Game 7.
In 2019, Steph eliminated the Rockets in Game 6 without KD - dropping 33 in the 2nd half alone.
Just last week, Rockets coach Ime Udoka and Steph Curry had strong words for each other during the Rockets' win.
There's no love lost between the 2 teams, and the stage is set for another classic.
Will Steph and Draymond eliminate Houston for a 5th time?
Or will the Rockets use their stingy defense to shut down Steph?
