SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Stephen Curry and the Golden State Warriors are going to have to do this the hard way.
They're headed back to Houston for a deciding Game 7 in the first round of the Western Conference playoffs, needing another trip to Texas to try to extend their season after a missed opportunity at home in a 115-107 loss that evened the series with the Rockets at three games apiece.
Speaking of misses — there were way too many of them for the Warriors down the stretch to have a chance against Fred VanVleet and second-seeded Houston.
