Golden State Warriors and Houston Rockets head-to-head record
Game 4 between the Houston Rockets and Golden State Warriors looks to be another fierce contest based on their previous five meetings. The Warriors have shown they are able to regulate the tempo when the defense locks in by winning three of the previous five encounters, including a resounding 104-93 triumph in Game 3. But as evidenced by their 106-96 victory previously in April and their 109-94 victory in Game 2, the Rockets have shown they can bounce back. Houston might remain competitive because of their capacity to up the speed and score frequently, particularly inside the paint. However, Golden State has the advantage, particularly at home, with their expertise and three-point shooting, which is led by Brandin Podziemski and Stephen Curry. The Warriors might take a decisive series lead if they continue to perform strong defense and contain Houston's attack, as they showed in Games 1 and 3.
