As for game four ten Rockets needed James Harden to empty out the tank and empty out the tank and he did. Nike Basketball's "Beard Project" dba "Fear the Beard" #13 emptied out all what he had for a game-high 45 points on a slick 13 for 22 from the field and 7 for 11 from deep. More importantly the Rockets followed his lead and responded to at least avoiding the sweep.
The Warriors lost Curry to that nasty spill in the 2nd frame but rallied cutting that Rockets 20-point deficit to a manageable 69-59 deficit at the break. It was Harden though that was the difference in this one as Curry came back as he and Klay Thompson combined for 47 points going 12 for 26 from deep. Draymond Green went "Monsters 94 x 50" with 21 points and fifteen boards but was disqualified late in the 4th.
The Rockets went onto win 128-115 as Josh Smith added 20 points and Trevor Ariza 17. The key stat of the night was the Rockets shooting 25 of 43 from the stripe and "Dubs" shooting 7 for 13 from the stripe.
Game 5 at Planet Oracle on "Hump Day" May 27 as "Dubs" better not play with the Rockets or they will find themselves in a street fight...
