The Golden State Warriors season of experimentation rolled through the unfriendly confines of the the Houston Rockets last night, giving the Bay Area’s team of youngsters a firsthand look at one of the most dangerous teams in the NBA.
The dynastic Dubs have owned Houston over the last five years, but the contests are usually fraught with drama and intensity. Last night, the Warriors rolled out a rotation that (aside from Damion Lee) had previously never felt the competitive fire that a Houston-Golden State matchup brings. We were able to get an idea of which players could see rotation minutes in a playoff series if/when these two Western Conference titans meet again.
