The Rockets are therefore driven against a considerable wall, even after a game 6 was forced.

On the positive side, when the security guard Fred Vanvleet emphasized on Wednesday despite the results of the results on Wednesday, the games between the two teams were largely close. The Warriors only won game 4, for example after Alperen Sengun missed a feasible 12-foot value in the last seconds.

“Keep everything lightly and fresh and confident and understand that we have played good basketball,” said Vanvleet. “It is not as if we'd step over our (expantive) all the time.”

Another plus page: In game 6, the Rockets will usually be their rotation intact. The team made its official injury report to the NBA on Thursday evening, and there was only one change. Jock Landale, who was traveling with a knee injury, but returned to the campaign with five minutes in game 5, is again in the injury report.

Landale is listed as “out” with the knee problem.

Jae'san Tate is also on the road, with an ankle injury that at least keeps him away for this series and can probably make the rockets a comeback longer, that is,.

The Rockets hope that they can carry the serenity they showed in game 5.

“We came out aggressively and performed aggressively and defensively,” said Guard Jalen Green. “We had a professional approach and dealt with shops.”
