Golden State Warriors beat Houston Rockets 107-98 at the Oracle Arena on Saturday to continue their red-hot streak in the NBA Championship. Warriors have beaten Memphis Grizzlies and San Antonio Spurs within a week as they continue to dazzle on the court. Forward Stephen Curry scored 24 points with Klay Thompson shooting 20 points.
“I kind of feel like these last four games have all had playoff intensity and we’ve come out on top of all of them just winning all sorts of different ways,” Curry said after the game. It was their sixth straight win at the Oracle Arena.
“We have six games left,” coach Steve Kerr said. “We don’t have the 1 seed locked up yet, so we’ve got to keep going and we’ll see how it all plays out.” Warriors now face Washington Wizards and will look to cement the top seed.
