The Houston Rockets have torn through the Western Conference with frenetic pace coupled with a few hiccups along the way. I’ll still NEVER forget that terrible loss to the Golden State Warriors back Christmas Day because there was absolutely no excuse for them to lose that game.
I’ve debated this on end with friends and that game against the Warriors was a trap in every sense of the word. I’ve heard arguments such as “there are no trap games in basketball,” or the “Houston Rockets knew what they were doing.” Those are two different extremes and neither of them is acceptable against a team like the Warriors.
