The Golden State Warriors visit the Houston Rockets for Game 3 of the Western Conference Semifinals tonight at 5:30 p.m. PT, on ABC.
Should the Warriors win, they’ll take a commanding 3-0 lead in the series. That series margin has never been squandered in the history of the NBA Playoffs.
If the Rockets win, the series is suddenly 2-1, and very, very interesting.
Of course, these two teams are used to meeting for playoff games. And when they met in Houston last year, something amazing happened: The Rockets missed 27 consecutive three-pointers.
