Rockets @ Warriors

The Warriors were back in Oakland as the Rockets came to town after beating Suns the night before. The Warriors are no stranger to back to back games after beating the Kings in Sacramento were well prepared to play the Rockets as they jumped out to an early 15 point lead in the first quarter. The Rockets did come back to take the lead but could not hold of the streaking Warriors as they win their 5th in a row, with big help from Al Harrington's defense who held Yao to 10 points. Yao had more turnovers than field goals made. Harrington also had a stellar offensive performance shooting 7-10 from the field and 4-5 from downtown. The Warriors got 91 points from their starters and the Rockets only had 34. T-Mac and Yao combined for a 9-26fg and only scoring 21 points when they normally average 48.5. Monta had another great game taking down 10 rebounds with 18 points. Baron Davis continues his MVP antics as he racked up another great stat line with 27, 8 ast, 5 reb, and 5 stl.


The Warriors now winners of 7 of their last 8 move to one game over .500, by beating Houston 113 - 94.
