With a chance to take full control of the series, the Houston Rockets came up short in a 104-99 Game 5 loss to the Golden State Warriors, Wednesday night, in the Oracle Arena in Oakland. With the loss, the Rockets now trail the Warriors 3-2 as they head back to Houston for Game 6.
With 1:25 remaining in the first quarter, Draymond Green rose over the top of Chris Paul and drained a contested 3-point shot. The made field goal bucket by Green was an example of how everything seemed to click for the Warriors during the first half.
