by

Warriors star Jimmy Butler returned from an injury in game 4 out of 27 points and five important free throws in the last minute, and Houston is now exposed to potential removal in game 5.

After the Houston Rockets had run with four points too late, they were surpassed in Golden State (Box Score) with seven points with 109:10 games in the last four minutes of the 109:10 game. A controversial three-shot foul by Dillon Brooks against Warriors star Jimmy Butler in a tie game with less than a minute was crucial.

With the loss, Golden State leads the best-of-Seven series with a 3-1 lead. You will try to end the first round of the first round in game 5 on Wednesday in Houston.

The remarkable statistics included:

  • Alperen Sengun: 31 points, 10 rebounds, 5 assists, 2 steals; 12-von-28 shooting (42.9%), 7 out of 10 for free throws (70.0%)
  • Fred Vanvleet: 25 points, 6 templates; 8 from-12 to 3-pointer (66.7%)

  • Steph Curry: 17 points, 3 templates, 4 sales; 6-von -13 shooting (46.2%), 2 von-8 on 3-no-older (25.0%)

After the lack of game 3 and most of the game 2, Butler returned with a left -wing pelvicontusion, and his three free throws in a tie with less than a minute were the difference.

Although the Rockets defeated the Golden State for total shooting, 3-point shooting and rebounds, they only made 19 out of 31 free throws (61.3%), compared to 20 out of 22 for the Warriors (90.9%). This gap turned out to be crucial.
