00:00:00And the Rockets again starting to flex.
00:00:05Spiro, there are so many different ways to impact this game.
00:00:08Amin Thompson, a freak of an athlete, showing this right there.
00:00:14Pick in the pocket of Chef Curry, getting the thunderous slam, and he goes to the free throw line.
00:00:21Fourth pick in the draft back in 2023 by their GM, Raphael Stone, who has just been masterful with his draft work over the last couple of years.
00:00:36And what an outstanding second-year season it was for this young man.
00:00:39Career highs across the board.
00:00:41He finished first among all second-year players in rebounds, second in blocks, third in points, and assists.
00:00:47My goodness, everything he does as a defensive star.
00:00:53Eight straight for Houston.
00:00:55Here comes Curry.
00:00:56High archer.
00:00:57No.
00:00:58Offensive rebound, Butler.
00:01:02Curry elevates and hits.
00:01:05And Curry never stops moving.
00:01:07Never stops moving.
00:01:08Great offensive rebound.
00:01:10Golden State finding him for the catch-and-shoot three.
00:01:14All 11 of Curry's points have come in the quarter.
00:01:17The Golden State's got a lot of work left to do.
00:01:20Here comes Shen Good boy, chiseling his way right to the cup.
00:01:26And Shen Good playing one-on-one.
00:01:29He said if they're not going to double, he's going to make them pay.
00:01:34Steps starting to work up a little lather.
00:01:36Offensive rebound, Looney.
00:01:38Now he's shooting.
00:01:38Here comes GP2 end of the beat with a shovel feed underneath.
00:01:46And Jimmy Butler with two free throws forthcoming.
00:01:50Third personal here against Shang-Goon.
00:01:57With 13.6 left to play before halftime.
00:02:01As Imei Udoka points to his head at Shang-Goon, the young star.
00:02:06Learning that maybe you give up that layup to prevent picking up your third foul.
00:02:11What a brilliant coaching job at Spring Candice by Imei Udoka, 47-year-old second-year head coach.
00:02:23This team went out, got the veteran players that they felt they needed to supplement.
00:02:27There's this really burgeoning young nucleus of players.
00:02:35And this coaching staff has put it all together.
00:02:39So Jimmy Butler, all six of his points in the quarter.
00:02:44And here we go, final seven seconds.
00:02:46Van Vliet, Golden State is out of fouls.
00:02:49Van Vliet to the wreck.
00:02:52Just masterful.
00:02:53For Jim's team, a little bit of contact.
00:02:59And that's going to get us to halftime here in Houston.
00:03:03The Rockets shooting at a 69% clip.
00:03:08And Golden State taking it on the chin so far here in Game 5.
00:03:15We will break.
00:03:17Get you to our TNT Studios next for the American Express Halftime Report.
00:03:23You are watching the NBA on TNT, presented by NerdWallet.
00:03:35Fizzy.
00:03:36Golden State's 27-point halftime deficit is tied for the second worst in their postseason history.
00:03:44They've got an awful lot of work to do if they're going to make this a game.
00:03:48As we welcome you back courtside here in Houston.
00:03:50Spiroditas, Candace Parker.
00:03:51We'll hear from 3D in just a couple of minutes.
00:03:53Looking at that stat sheet, they scored a ton of points.
00:03:56Basically got anything they wanted in the first half.
00:03:58What stood out?
00:03:59No, no, just numbers.
00:04:00Well, you can talk about points in the paint.
00:04:01They have a plus 16 advantage on Golden State.
00:04:04Talk about free throw line, plus 10 advantage.
00:04:06But it's really been the sense of urgency that this Rockets team came out with.
00:04:11They came out and imposed their will on the defensive end, which then ignited their fluidity on the offensive end.
00:04:18And Golden State has not had an answer trying to stop them in transition.
00:04:23Dennis, you spoke to Steve Kerr coming out of the locker room.
00:04:25What did he tell you?
00:04:26I said, Steve, you know why I'm here from our conversation in the pregame?
00:04:30He said, it's five-minute tops.
00:04:32Unless the Warriors go on some type of crazy run, he's going to bring the big three out the ballgame, guys.
00:04:38Steve Kerr told us, just based on the age of the team, just one day now in between games for these final three potential games of the series,
00:04:49not sure how long he would chase it is how he put it.
00:04:52If this thing were to get out of hand, then that is exactly what has happened.
00:04:56So let's see what they can do here in the first couple of minutes of the third quarter.
00:05:00Well, it has been the Rockets day.
00:05:02You look at the stats, 69% from the field.
00:05:06As Brooks gets the turnaround to go again, and sometimes when the ball's just going in,
00:05:12that hoop can be the size of the ocean.
00:05:14That's what the Rockets have done, and they've done it passing the basketball,
00:05:17making points easy as Amin Thompson comes over and gets a blocked weak side.
00:05:26And both players took a shot.
00:05:28Jimmy Butler in some pain as Thompson has whistled for his second.
00:05:34As Butler was trying to tip in the miss.
00:05:38And now it looks like Butler is going to get to the free throw line.
00:05:43It looks like when Amin Thompson came down.
00:05:51Actually, he sat out of bounds for Golden State.
00:05:53Bumped heads with Jimmy Butler right here on the attempt to block the shot, right?
00:06:00It's like he hit his shoulder and his hand hit Jimmy in the face.
00:06:04All right, so both players look like they're okay.
00:06:09Buddy Field making his second straight start at the inbounder.
00:06:13Stephen Curry, 3 of 10 from the field.
00:06:16Look at Jang-Goon, blanking Curry.
00:06:21And then Pajemski with the shot clock.
00:06:23Is it 1?
00:06:24Curry has to fire.
00:06:25And that pick nearly win.
00:06:26Block gets on the push here with Green.
00:06:33Top shot fading away.
00:06:35Shang-Goon.
00:06:37Hard put back.
00:06:39And Shang-Goon, you mentioned earlier,
00:06:42two forwards in Jokic
00:06:44and Giannis Attencipo
00:06:46that he's in the same conversation with.
00:06:49Eight assists early.
00:06:50Has dominated the paint in this series
00:06:53as Pajemski knocks down a three,
00:06:56but you talk about leading with your play.
00:07:00Shang-Goon has been the physicality.
00:07:03He's been the only Rocket player
00:07:05that has scored over 20
00:07:06each of the four games in this series.
00:07:11Kaelin Green looks comfortable.
00:07:14Boy, did you see him kind of look back at Draymond's direction?
00:07:17Didn't say anything.
00:07:19But he has played with all kinds of purpose,
00:07:21playing with fire in his belly,
00:07:22hurt all the naysayers the last couple of days
00:07:25with his struggles in the three games
00:07:27that they've lost in this series.
00:07:30And boy, has the young man responded
00:07:31with what has been a magnificent performance
00:07:35here in Game 5.
00:07:36Well, he's looking at Draymond
00:07:38running down the court
00:07:40saying he better respect the three-point shot
00:07:43as in the Game 2 victory the Rockets had,
00:07:47Jalen Green had eight threes in that matchup,
00:07:50so he can get it going from downtown.
00:07:52This now matches the largest lead of the night
00:07:55for Houston as the officials get Pajemski on the block.
00:07:59And Golden State just can't catch a break.
00:08:03Pajemski, all of his ailments
00:08:04that he's had to contend with this season,
00:08:06had a bout with food poisoning earlier in the series,
00:08:10that abdominal strain that cost him
00:08:11about a dozen games in January
00:08:13as he experiences his first taste of the NBA postseason.
00:08:19Dillon Brooks against Curry.
00:08:26He's tied up a bunch of times the other night.
00:08:30Rare miss.
00:08:31Curry kneeled the head of the pack
00:08:33and lays it in.
00:08:37Can Golden State
00:08:38make this
00:08:40remotely interesting
00:08:42to try to give themselves a chance.
00:08:45Good.
00:08:45Van Vliet stopping at a dime.
00:08:49Tapped out in Golden State controls.
00:08:53Into the corner,
00:08:54Heald attacking again,
00:08:55flicks it up and in.
00:08:56And Heald getting it going
00:09:00in transition.
00:09:01That's how Golden State likes to play.
00:09:02They like to have pace.
00:09:03They like to play with
00:09:04play off of their defense
00:09:07and Heald picking up
00:09:09at the point of attack.
00:09:11And then Heald gets the
00:09:12block against Green.
00:09:14Boy, it's crazy.
00:09:15Buddy Heald,
00:09:15ninth year in the league.
00:09:16This is only his second NBA postseason.
00:09:19Got there last year with Philly.
00:09:21Team that lost to the Knicks
00:09:23in that first round series.
00:09:24What an addition he's been
00:09:26for Golden State.
00:09:32Shot clock at six.
00:09:35Inside.
00:09:37And blood air
00:09:39under that floater.
00:09:40And through the contact
00:09:41right there.
00:09:41It's that
00:09:42little on big screen
00:09:45that we saw so much
00:09:46with the Boston Celtics
00:09:49when they were making their run
00:09:50with KG
00:09:51and Paul Pierce.
00:09:52I love that little on big screen.
00:09:54The little pops
00:09:55and Van Cleet
00:09:55makes Golden State pay.
00:09:58The Jemski boy
00:09:59a sweeping little hook shot
00:10:01as he came across the paint.
00:10:04Well, I came into this game
00:10:05saying it was about the others
00:10:06for Golden State,
00:10:07but it really has been
00:10:08the superstars.
00:10:09You look at the numbers.
00:10:11Steph and Butler
00:10:12four of 19 combined
00:10:14from the field.
00:10:15Jalen Green little hard
00:10:19and the officials
00:10:20are going to get
00:10:20a loose ball foul
00:10:21here against Shang-Goon
00:10:22with a little shove
00:10:24to the back of Draymond.
00:10:26You see that
00:10:26screen
00:10:28Van Cleet
00:10:29set on Shang-Goon
00:10:31and then pops
00:10:32and then right here
00:10:33Pajemski
00:10:34finishing with that
00:10:36offhand.
00:10:39We've got Akeem
00:10:40and the great
00:10:41Elvin Hayes
00:10:42here courtside.
00:10:43I didn't know that
00:10:43Pajemski had that
00:10:45in his bag of tricks,
00:10:46but those two
00:10:46certainly appreciated it.
00:10:48Here comes Curry
00:10:49to drive and kick
00:10:49out to Pajemski.
00:10:52And a little bit
00:10:53short from B.
00:10:54So we cross the
00:10:56eight-minute mark
00:10:57in the quarter.
00:10:58Elvin Thompson
00:10:58Eurostep
00:10:59pretty finish.
00:11:01And Golden State's
00:11:02defense,
00:11:03I know this is a
00:11:0430-point game,
00:11:05but just not building
00:11:06a wall,
00:11:07not getting back,
00:11:08kind of running
00:11:09in no-man's land.
00:11:11And you can't do that
00:11:12against an athlete
00:11:13like Elvin Thompson.
00:11:15Draymond Green,
00:11:16hard dive backdoor,
00:11:18and he's got
00:11:19seven points.
00:11:24Traymond Green,
00:11:27that brilliant
00:11:27defensive stop
00:11:28to seal their
00:11:30winning game four.
00:11:33That's Jalen Green's
00:11:34drive forwarded.
00:11:36See right here,
00:11:37a man with this
00:11:38nice Eurostep
00:11:39finish at the rim.
00:11:41You talk about
00:11:41athleticism on
00:11:43athleticism.
00:11:44Not just bringing it
00:11:46on the defensive end.
00:11:47You look at his stats,
00:11:48he already has five
00:11:49steals.
00:11:50They were all
00:11:50in the first half,
00:11:52but in transition,
00:11:54he is fun to watch.
00:11:56Grand Bleed again.
00:11:58High-arching floater,
00:11:59Steven Adams.
00:12:02One of the great
00:12:03offensive rebounders
00:12:04getting some extra
00:12:05possessions for Houston.
00:12:08So we get the
00:12:09seven-minute mark
00:12:10in the quarter.
00:12:11Buddy Heal playing
00:12:12that two-man action
00:12:13with Butler.
00:12:13Stops on the dime,
00:12:14left it short,
00:12:15and then Butler
00:12:16the flail at it.
00:12:18And it actually
00:12:18goes in off glass.
00:12:19Eight for Butler.
00:12:20Hasn't been his night
00:12:24so far.
00:12:24You see his line
00:12:26until this point.
00:12:28It's two of ten
00:12:29from the field.
00:12:31And as 3-D eluded,
00:12:32unless Golden State
00:12:33goes on a big run,
00:12:35Hurd said five minutes.
00:12:37We've hit that
00:12:38over.
00:12:40As Tillenbrooks
00:12:42knocks down
00:12:43the mid-range game,
00:12:45he's been extremely
00:12:46efficient.
00:12:47Five of six.
00:12:48Goodness,
00:12:50the Rockets are high.
00:12:54Here comes Curry.
00:12:55Hard drive
00:12:56to the rack.
00:12:58So 13 for Steph.
00:13:01But as we hit
00:13:01the midway point
00:13:02of the quarter,
00:13:03you look over
00:13:04Golden State,
00:13:05who is still
00:13:06in a 27-point hole.
00:13:12Green gets it
00:13:13back from Adams.
00:13:14Adams on the
00:13:18box plate.
00:13:19Smart pass.
00:13:21Van Vliet.
00:13:22Steve Kerr
00:13:23wants a timeout.
00:13:26That is Golden State's
00:13:27coach.
00:13:27Handle this
00:13:28coming down
00:13:28the stretch.
00:13:30It has been
00:13:31all Rockets.
00:13:33This ascending
00:13:34team in the West
00:13:35throwing punches
00:13:37here in Game 5.
00:13:39Welcome back
00:13:40where the Rockets
00:13:41are putting on
00:13:42an absolute clinic.
00:13:43You talk about
00:13:44steals.
00:13:45Amin Thompson's
00:13:46got up.
00:13:47Blocks two.
00:13:48And he's stirring
00:13:49the pot with
00:13:50Chef Curry.
00:13:51And then throwing
00:13:52it down in
00:13:53transition.
00:13:54I mean,
00:13:54Amin Thompson
00:13:55has just shown
00:13:56that you can
00:13:56dominate the game
00:13:57in so many
00:13:58different ways.
00:13:59He's done so.
00:13:59Five of nine
00:14:00field goals.
00:14:01You talk about
00:14:02five steals.
00:14:0315 points.
00:14:05He has just
00:14:05been a menace
00:14:06and has ignited
00:14:07the Rockets to be
00:14:08able to play the
00:14:08way they want to
00:14:09play, which is
00:14:10in transition.
00:14:11And Candice,
00:14:13I think we've
00:14:13gotten a wave
00:14:14of the white flag
00:14:15from Steve Kerr
00:14:16who has emptied
00:14:17his bench.
00:14:18Got the report
00:14:19from Dennis.
00:14:19This is basically
00:14:20what Kerr told us
00:14:21in our pre-game chat.
00:14:23Again,
00:14:23based on the schedule,
00:14:25the cross-country
00:14:25play,
00:14:26just one day off
00:14:26of rest now
00:14:27in between
00:14:28each of these
00:14:29final potential
00:14:29three games
00:14:30of the series.
00:14:32He just wasn't
00:14:33sure how long
00:14:33he would chase it
00:14:34and I think
00:14:35we've got our answer.
00:14:36Maybe if he can
00:14:37make a run here,
00:14:39we see the starters
00:14:40at some point
00:14:41in the fourth quarter
00:14:41but it just
00:14:44has not been there
00:14:45now.
00:14:49Kevin Knox,
00:14:50Pat Spencer,
00:14:51back in with
00:14:51Santos,
00:14:53Post,
00:14:53and Rudy.
00:14:54Dylan Brooks,
00:14:56and he's going to get
00:14:57free throws.
00:14:57we've got to give
00:14:58the Rockets
00:14:59a ton of love
00:15:00because for a young
00:15:02team to bounce
00:15:04back after a
00:15:05devastating one
00:15:06possession loss
00:15:07against Golden State
00:15:08in game four,
00:15:10go down 3-1,
00:15:11you worry as a coach
00:15:13what's the mentality
00:15:14that your team's
00:15:14going to have
00:15:15and usually the one
00:15:16that throws the punch
00:15:18and poses their will
00:15:19usually wins the game
00:15:21and the Rockets
00:15:21were the first
00:15:22to do that.
00:15:23As we take a look
00:15:24at our FanDuel Live
00:15:25point spread
00:15:26for tonight's game.
00:15:28This thing back up
00:15:29to 30,
00:15:29look at where the line
00:15:30was to start
00:15:31and where it is
00:15:32currently.
00:15:33Look,
00:15:34you also consider
00:15:35the season that
00:15:36Houston had.
00:15:36Remember they jumped
00:15:37out to that
00:15:37really incredible
00:15:38start.
00:15:39They were 32-15
00:15:40at the end of January,
00:15:412nd in the conference,
00:15:42and then they had
00:15:44that free fall,
00:15:45that 5-11,
00:15:4716-game stretch,
00:15:48and everyone said,
00:15:49the other shoe
00:15:50has dropped,
00:15:50young team,
00:15:51they still got
00:15:51a lot to learn,
00:15:53and then they
00:15:53responded,
00:15:54Candice,
00:15:55fought their way
00:15:55back,
00:15:56of course got
00:15:56the two seed.
00:15:59This coming of age
00:16:00that has continued
00:16:01with this young,
00:16:02rising team,
00:16:03Dylan Brooks
00:16:04from Beef.
00:16:06So they have proven
00:16:08that they are
00:16:08resilient.
00:16:10Well,
00:16:10in so many
00:16:11people's eyes
00:16:12this season,
00:16:14they did not
00:16:14have the Rockets
00:16:15as a number
00:16:16two seed,
00:16:17but 52 wins
00:16:19later,
00:16:20they're there,
00:16:21and to be honest
00:16:21with you,
00:16:22they probably
00:16:23read the press,
00:16:24they probably saw
00:16:24everybody writing
00:16:25them off in this
00:16:26series,
00:16:26they saw everybody
00:16:27picking Golden State,
00:16:29and getting back
00:16:31at home,
00:16:32they did a great
00:16:33job of coming out
00:16:34and being aggressive.
00:16:35That has been
00:16:36the major,
00:16:37major key.
00:16:38Obviously the ball
00:16:39going in the basket
00:16:40at a clip of 62%,
00:16:42doesn't hurt.
00:16:45First 50-win season
00:16:46for Houston
00:16:47in six years,
00:16:47first time
00:16:48as a top two seed
00:16:49again since that
00:16:5017-18 campaign.
00:16:52The team that got
00:16:53to the conference
00:16:53finals,
00:16:54eventually losing
00:16:55to the Warriors.
00:16:57Great Houston team
00:16:58with Harden
00:16:59CP3.
00:17:02Now there's
00:17:02a new version
00:17:03of the Rockets.
00:17:07Here's Spencer
00:17:08going over
00:17:09the shoulder
00:17:09off glass.
00:17:13Spencer,
00:17:14the undrafted
00:17:15second-year player
00:17:16out of Northwestern.
00:17:18As we are inside
00:17:20of four minutes
00:17:20left in the corner,
00:17:21here comes Thompson,
00:17:22full extension.
00:17:23Oh my goodness.
00:17:24What did we just see?
00:17:27I've seen
00:17:28some tremendous
00:17:30athleticism,
00:17:32but seeing it in person
00:17:33is different, folks.
00:17:35Right here,
00:17:36just the ability
00:17:38to just rise up.
00:17:41Right here,
00:17:43stop on a dime
00:17:43and rise up.
00:17:46And to be honest
00:17:46with you,
00:17:47Post doesn't wrap him
00:17:48up.
00:17:48I think that that
00:17:49is going to be
00:17:49on his highlight reel
00:17:50of his career.
00:17:54What an emotional
00:17:55rollercoaster ride
00:17:56it's been for
00:17:56the Thompson family.
00:17:57His brother,
00:17:58Asar,
00:17:58and the Pistings
00:17:59getting a big win
00:18:00last night
00:18:01in Madison Square Garden.
00:18:05And you know,
00:18:06Spiro,
00:18:06I did their
00:18:07the Rising Stars game
00:18:09and they were
00:18:10on the same team.
00:18:10I could not
00:18:11tell them apart.
00:18:12I had no idea.
00:18:13I just called them
00:18:13Thompson,
00:18:14the Thompson twin.
00:18:15Well,
00:18:15they can both play.
00:18:16We know that.
00:18:17And so free throw
00:18:18is coming up here
00:18:19for Golden State.
00:18:21And just think
00:18:21of the player,
00:18:22Candace,
00:18:22he's become again
00:18:23only 22,
00:18:24which is just scary.
00:18:26Everything he does
00:18:27defensively,
00:18:27but as he continues
00:18:28to improve
00:18:30on that three-point stroke,
00:18:32that has been
00:18:32the weakness
00:18:33of his game.
00:18:33Sub-30% this season
00:18:35from the three-point line.
00:18:37But if he can develop
00:18:37that thing from the outside,
00:18:40you're talking about
00:18:41a potentially
00:18:41complete player
00:18:42at both ends
00:18:43of the floor.
00:18:46As we take
00:18:46a little peek
00:18:47upcoming
00:18:47playoff schedule,
00:18:49speaking of the Pistons,
00:18:50back at it tomorrow,
00:18:51Game 6.
00:18:52As they play
00:18:53the Knicks back
00:18:54on their home floor,
00:18:55Denver Clippers,
00:18:56Game 6 of that series.
00:18:58NBA.com
00:18:59revisit the NBA app.
00:19:02I know the graphics
00:19:03showed the Joker
00:19:04one of the best.
00:19:06He will go down
00:19:07as one of the best
00:19:08to play the game.
00:19:10But Jamal Murray,
00:19:11talk about his,
00:19:13talk about playoff Jimmy,
00:19:14talk about playoff
00:19:16Jamal Murray.
00:19:16He was bubbled
00:19:19Jamal for a while,
00:19:20but he has proven
00:19:21to be
00:19:21someone who's got
00:19:23stand power.
00:19:24Just amazing
00:19:25to watch his performance
00:19:26last night in Denver.
00:19:28Shot clock at 5.
00:19:29Here comes Van Vliet.
00:19:30Looks like Knox
00:19:31got a fingertip on it.
00:19:33Adams,
00:19:34look at the big,
00:19:34working hard.
00:19:36Smith
00:19:36on a rim run,
00:19:39and he's going to
00:19:39shoot free throws.
00:19:42Officials get post,
00:19:43that'll be his fifth.
00:19:45And the Rockets
00:19:46continue in what
00:19:48has been a dominating night.
00:19:52First round coverage
00:19:53on TNT
00:19:54is presented
00:19:55by NerdWallet.
00:19:57Beautiful sunset
00:19:58over downtown Houston.
00:20:00And this has been
00:20:02all Rockets
00:20:04from the start.
00:20:06How about a little
00:20:06TNT game break
00:20:07presented by PayPal
00:20:09as they continue
00:20:10to get warmed up
00:20:11out in L.A.
00:20:12Game 5 of that series.
00:20:14All the pressure
00:20:15on Luka Doncic
00:20:16and the Lakers
00:20:17with the Timberwolves
00:20:18having a chance
00:20:19to close that baby
00:20:20out tonight.
00:20:21Kevin Harlan,
00:20:22Reggie Miller,
00:20:23and Ali LaForce
00:20:24will have the call
00:20:24tip-off set
00:20:25just after
00:20:2610 o'clock
00:20:27Eastern time.
00:20:28Candice,
00:20:29what are your thoughts
00:20:30going into that game?
00:20:31What have you thought
00:20:32so far in the series?
00:20:33Well, my question is
00:20:34are LeBron and Luka
00:20:36going to have enough rest
00:20:37after playing
00:20:38all of the second half,
00:20:41all the starters
00:20:41playing the second half?
00:20:43You know in order
00:20:44to beat the Timberwolves
00:20:45you've got to knock down
00:20:46the three a little bit
00:20:47as they shoot it
00:20:48at a high clip
00:20:49from beyond the arc.
00:20:50But also,
00:20:51I'm tuned in to see
00:20:52if Ant Edwards
00:20:53can do the impossible.
00:20:55You talk about
00:20:55going through
00:20:56Kevin Durant
00:20:57last year
00:20:58in the playoffs.
00:20:59You talk about
00:21:00going through
00:21:01Joker
00:21:01last year
00:21:02in a Game 7
00:21:03thriller comeback.
00:21:05Lost to Luka
00:21:06and then now
00:21:06has redemption
00:21:07and the ability
00:21:08to end
00:21:08Luka and LeBron
00:21:10in this series.
00:21:11It's just incredible.
00:21:12That's the only thing
00:21:13that has eluded
00:21:13Anthony Edwards.
00:21:15But every year
00:21:16it just seems like
00:21:17he takes that next step
00:21:18doing it under
00:21:19the bright lights
00:21:20of the postseason.
00:21:22In that Minnesota team
00:21:23in that series
00:21:25we will be watching
00:21:26later tonight
00:21:26here on TNT.
00:21:28Van Thompson
00:21:29handcuffed out front
00:21:31by Mooney.
00:21:33Now Eason with six
00:21:34on the timer
00:21:35and he coughs it up.
00:21:38It's a steal.
00:21:39Santos
00:21:39and head
00:21:40to Spencer.
00:21:41Pretty little
00:21:41up and under
00:21:42reverse.
00:21:44Spencer's had some
00:21:45acrobatic finishes
00:21:47here in these
00:21:48third quarter minutes.
00:21:50So we get the
00:21:50two minute mark
00:21:51left in the quarter.
00:21:54Houston facing
00:21:55some of these
00:21:55second and third
00:21:56stringers.
00:21:581-0-2-74
00:22:01as Aaron Holiday
00:22:03gets his first
00:22:03basket of the night.
00:22:04You talked about
00:22:05the family affair
00:22:06of a mint Thompson.
00:22:08How about
00:22:09the holidays?
00:22:10It's playoff time
00:22:12for the family.
00:22:13Drew dealing
00:22:13with that injury
00:22:14for Boston
00:22:15as he tries
00:22:16to get himself
00:22:16physically right.
00:22:19As we are down
00:22:20at 90 seconds
00:22:21left in the quarter.
00:22:26Thompson resets
00:22:27against Moody.
00:22:29He will fire
00:22:30and hits.
00:22:32Well, you ask
00:22:33and you shall receive.
00:22:34That looks
00:22:35pretty.
00:22:37Comfortable,
00:22:38calm, cool.
00:22:39If he adds
00:22:40that to his game,
00:22:41it is scary for me.
00:22:43Again,
00:22:43didn't shoot it
00:22:44well this season
00:22:45but he has
00:22:45shown signs
00:22:46of improvement
00:22:48with that three-point
00:22:49stroke as Spencer
00:22:50hits again
00:22:50his third basket
00:22:52off the bench
00:22:52as we are inside
00:22:54of a minute left
00:22:55in the quarter.
00:22:57Officials blow
00:22:58the whistle here.
00:23:00Nick Booker.
00:23:01a pretty good couple
00:23:08of nights
00:23:08for the Thompson
00:23:09twins.
00:23:11Talk about
00:23:12good genes.
00:23:15Second pair
00:23:15of brothers
00:23:16with 20-plus points
00:23:17in the same
00:23:17postseason
00:23:18since Steph
00:23:19and Seth
00:23:20back in 2022.
00:23:23Pretty good company.
00:23:25Boy, the future
00:23:26is brave
00:23:26for both of those
00:23:27two young players.
00:23:35Thompson ahead
00:23:36to Adams.
00:23:40And Ibe Udoka
00:23:41wants a timeout.
00:23:43A couple of subs
00:23:45that he wants
00:23:45to bring in
00:23:46as we play
00:23:47with 50 seconds
00:23:48left in the quarter
00:23:49on TNT.
00:24:11Looks like
00:24:12Muscle Clutch
00:24:13has assigned
00:24:14basketball
00:24:14from the franchise
00:24:16itself.
00:24:17See Francis
00:24:18get upon your feet
00:24:20and make some noise
00:24:21if you want it.
00:24:24to get in.
00:24:25Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:24:28I'm all alone.
00:24:31It goes all alone.
00:24:34Oh, yeah, yeah.
00:24:36I put my hands
00:24:37up in the air
00:24:38sometimes
00:24:39saying, hey, oh,
00:24:41gotta let go.
00:24:43I want to celebrate
00:24:44and live my life
00:24:46saying, hey, oh,
00:24:48baby, let's go.
00:24:49baseball season
00:24:57is in full swing
00:24:59next Tuesday.
00:25:00Couple of teams
00:25:00with championship
00:25:01aspirations
00:25:02will meet
00:25:03Padres
00:25:04Yankees
00:25:05at 630
00:25:05Eastern
00:25:06on TBS
00:25:07and stream
00:25:08on Max.
00:25:10Here in Houston,
00:25:11105-76
00:25:13with 50
00:25:13and change
00:25:14left
00:25:14in the quarter.
00:25:18We've seen
00:25:19Steve Kerr
00:25:20start to empty
00:25:21his bench.
00:25:23It's been one of those nights.
00:25:24Stephen Curry,
00:25:2413 points.
00:25:25He just hopped on
00:25:26with us
00:25:26and the Rockets
00:25:27just keep on coming.
00:25:33Then one day off
00:25:35after this one
00:25:37tonight
00:25:38before the series
00:25:39is set to
00:25:41head back
00:25:41to San Francisco.
00:25:43Looney.
00:25:49Again,
00:25:50assuming
00:25:50nothing crazy
00:25:51is going to happen
00:25:51in the fourth quarter,
00:25:53that coaching staff
00:25:54for Golden State
00:25:54can't start to talk
00:25:55about as they try
00:25:56to figure out
00:25:56this Houston zone
00:25:57defense that has
00:25:58given them some issues
00:25:59now in the last
00:25:59couple of games.
00:26:00Well,
00:26:01they've got to play
00:26:01with a sense of urgency
00:26:02and they came out
00:26:04passive
00:26:05and it gets the zone.
00:26:07The worst thing you can
00:26:07do is put the ball
00:26:08over your head
00:26:09and he's stagnant.
00:26:10And so
00:26:10they have to get the ball,
00:26:13maybe not scoring
00:26:14in the paint
00:26:14as Moody gets
00:26:15to the rack,
00:26:17they've got to get
00:26:18the ball touching
00:26:18the paint
00:26:19and then it puts
00:26:21the Rockets defense
00:26:22on their heels.
00:26:24Aaron Hollenay
00:26:24gets us to the end
00:26:26of the quarter
00:26:27here in Houston.
00:26:29The Rockets
00:26:30try to stave off
00:26:33elimination
00:26:33and boy,
00:26:34it looks good so far.
00:26:35First round coverage

00:27:00A couple of seconds ago,
00:27:01Fred VanVleet
00:27:02hanging out
00:27:02with 3B.
00:27:03All right, guys,

00:27:07Take us through
00:27:08the last 24 hours,

00:27:10How you guys are locked
00:27:11in and playing
00:27:11so well tonight?
00:27:13Just staying composed,
00:27:14understanding we got
00:27:14to get one,
00:27:15played well enough
00:27:16to win,
00:27:17but just lost it there
00:27:17in the last couple
00:27:18of minutes.
00:27:18So we've been feeling
00:27:19good about our play.
00:27:20Wanting to come home
00:27:21and respond.
00:27:22How have you been able
00:27:23to be the voice
00:27:24of these young guys
00:27:25to keep them focused
00:27:25when you go back
00:27:26on the road?
00:27:27Just one game
00:27:27at a time.
00:27:28Try to limit
00:27:29distractions as much
00:27:30as possible.
00:27:30It's a lot of our
00:27:31first time here,
00:27:32so it's been a rollercoaster
00:27:33up and down,
00:27:34but just staying focused
00:27:35to the details,
00:27:36locking into the gameplay.
00:27:39And Spiro,
00:27:40you talk about locked in.
00:27:42VanVleet,
00:27:4312 of his last 18
00:27:45from three-point land.
00:27:47I mean,
00:27:47he's been locked in.
00:27:49We saw what he did
00:27:50on that run
00:27:51when he was a guard
00:27:53for the Toronto Raptors
00:27:54when they beat
00:27:55Golden State
00:27:56in the NBA Finals.
00:27:58We saw he lit it up
00:27:59from downtown.
00:28:01He can catch a heater
00:28:01and the Rockets
00:28:02really doing a great job
00:28:04shooting from beyond
00:28:05the arc as a team,
00:28:0652%.
00:28:08Landale had to turn
00:28:09and fire with
00:28:10the shot clock
00:28:11winding down.
00:28:13You know,
00:28:13you just think of
00:28:13how VanVleet
00:28:14and Dylan Brooks
00:28:15changed his team
00:28:16last year.
00:28:18Second year
00:28:19with the franchise
00:28:19for both players.
00:28:21VanVleet,
00:28:21as you just alluded to,
00:28:22basically the only
00:28:23front court player
00:28:24with her front line
00:28:25player with Brooks
00:28:26that had any
00:28:27significant playoff
00:28:28experience.
00:28:30Championship season
00:28:31with the Raptors.
00:28:36There's a perfect
00:28:37player that this team
00:28:39was lacking
00:28:40but prior to his arrival.
00:28:43As we get a whistle
00:28:43underneath.
00:28:47Missed those 22 games,
00:28:49Candace,
00:28:49with the ankle injury
00:28:50this year,
00:28:50and they just were
00:28:51not the same team.
00:28:52And the experience
00:28:53that he brings
00:28:54to this roster.
00:28:56You know,
00:28:57talking to Coach
00:28:58Imei Adoka
00:28:58before the game,
00:29:00he talked about how
00:29:01when he's the bad cop,
00:29:03VanVleet comes in
00:29:05and is the good cop.
00:29:06So,
00:29:06when you're dealing
00:29:07with a young team,
00:29:08you need your leader
00:29:09to give
00:29:10the others confidence.
00:29:13And that's what he does.
00:29:16Three to the corner,
00:29:17this is Smith.
00:29:19That's a rare miss
00:29:20from three.
00:29:21Trace Jackson Davis
00:29:22able to snap the rebound.
00:29:27So Golden State
00:29:28shooting it
00:29:28at a 43% flip
00:29:30tonight.
00:29:30Jackson Davis,
00:29:31who was a rotation piece
00:29:33for Steve Kerr
00:29:34last year,
00:29:36with some more
00:29:37of the depth
00:29:37that they have
00:29:38has fallen out
00:29:39of the rotation
00:29:40as Tari Eason
00:29:41is whistled
00:29:42for his fourth.
00:29:44And so we know
00:29:44that this young man
00:29:45can play
00:29:46with so much
00:29:47offensive ability.

00:30:13And unable to convert
00:30:15at the free throw line.
00:30:19Neeson
00:30:20on the attack.
00:30:22Loose ball
00:30:23knocks.
00:30:27Knocked out of bounds
00:30:28by Houston.
00:30:29Candace, again,
00:30:30this is the craziness
00:30:31of a seven-game series.
00:30:33They're Golden State
00:30:34celebrating the other night,
00:30:35getting the win
00:30:36up 3-1
00:30:37in their building.
00:30:38and now suddenly
00:30:39the pressure
00:30:41is going to slowly
00:30:41start to transfer
00:30:42back to their shoulders.
00:30:45Well, the toughest part
00:30:46is after a win like that,
00:30:49you turn on the television,
00:30:51everybody's telling you
00:30:52how great you are.
00:30:53They open the newspaper,
00:30:55everybody's singing
00:30:56singing your praises.
00:30:57And the Rockets
00:31:00were reading that as well.
00:31:02I think that the hardest thing
00:31:03to deal with
00:31:04in the postseason
00:31:05is the emotional rollercoaster.
00:31:08And the teams
00:31:10that have mastered
00:31:10the ability
00:31:11to not get too emotional,
00:31:15not get too high,
00:31:16not get too low,
00:31:17as Steve Kerr
00:31:19calls a timeout.
00:31:259.43 to play
00:31:27as we play early stages
00:31:28fourth quarter
00:31:29here in Houston.
00:31:32Downtown Houston,
00:31:33the 2025 NBA playoffs
00:31:36are presented by Google.
00:31:39Twinkling lights,
00:31:40downtown H-Town.
00:31:41Boy, it just has been
00:31:44one of those nights
00:31:45for the Golden State Warriors
00:31:46after what was a party
00:31:48for them to finish
00:31:49and a thriller
00:31:50in game four.
00:31:52That's what they had
00:31:53envisioned here
00:31:54in game five.
00:31:56Yeah, from start to finish
00:31:58in terms of
00:32:00struggling on the offensive end
00:32:04and that carrying over
00:32:05defensively.
00:32:07I mean, the Rockets,
00:32:07we've got to give them
00:32:08credit though.
00:32:09They definitely did a job
00:32:11putting Golden State
00:32:12on their heels
00:32:13and Golden State
00:32:15now has to focus
00:32:16on getting back
00:32:17to the Bay
00:32:18and trying to
00:32:20take care of business.
00:32:21Game six of this series
00:32:22would be Friday
00:32:23in San Francisco
00:32:25and a potential
00:32:27game seven
00:32:28here in Houston
00:32:29on Sunday.
00:32:31And again,
00:32:32just to get back
00:32:33to what we were
00:32:33talking about earlier,
00:32:34suddenly the pressure
00:32:35on Golden State,
00:32:36Kansas,
00:32:37last thing they want
00:32:37to do is have to
00:32:38come here for
00:32:38potential game seven.
00:32:41Just look at how
00:32:42much more confidence
00:32:43this Houston team
00:32:44has played with
00:32:44in this building
00:32:45as Holiday
00:32:46has tripped up
00:32:47to the floor.
00:32:49Well, you understand
00:32:50basketball is a game
00:32:51of runs
00:32:52and with ten minutes,
00:32:53nine minutes left
00:32:54in this game,
00:32:55down 20.
00:32:57Coach Kerr has to be
00:32:58proud of his others
00:32:59that have come in.
00:33:00mainly Moses Moody.
00:33:04You look for some
00:33:04bright spots.
00:33:06Key contributors.
00:33:09Tate Jr.
00:33:10As Landale gets
00:33:13the friendly role
00:33:15on the other end.
00:33:18Steph Curry
00:33:18is lacing up
00:33:19his sneakers.
00:33:20They'll be trying
00:33:21to lobby
00:33:22Steve Curry
00:33:23to get to this game.
00:33:24Broken play.
00:33:28Golden State
00:33:29with another turnover.
00:33:33Three-pointed
00:33:34from Smith.
00:33:40Moses Moody
00:33:41into the corner.
00:33:43Here comes Knox.
00:33:44And the officials
00:33:44are going to get
00:33:45Reed Shepard
00:33:45on reach and foul.
00:33:47I know we were
00:33:47just trying to
00:33:48hold viewers.
00:33:50I think Steph Curry
00:33:51was just taking
00:33:51his ankle braces off.
00:33:52I don't know
00:33:53if he's lacing up
00:33:54his shoes.
00:33:54Is that what it was?
00:33:55Yeah.
00:33:55Yeah, he's just
00:33:57taking his ankle braces off.
00:33:58It's a wrap.
00:34:00You can hope
00:34:00against hope.
00:34:03So Kevin Knox
00:34:04will take the free throws
00:34:07for Golden State
00:34:08with 8.30 left
00:34:09to play
00:34:10in his fourth quarter.

00:34:25in the fourth quarter.
00:34:26That's what we've seen.
00:34:31Some crazy things
00:34:32happen.
00:34:33The 20-point game
00:34:33early in the fourth.
00:34:35Look at Moody
00:34:35boy trying to
00:34:36put it down
00:34:38with a sledgehammer
00:34:39hacked around
00:34:39the paint.
00:34:40Smith.
00:34:44Houston tries to
00:34:46maintain the pressure.
00:34:48Holiday misses
00:34:49at the rim.
00:34:49And what you don't want
00:34:50if you're Houston
00:34:51is to have to put
00:34:52your starters
00:34:53back in the game.
00:34:55You want to get
00:34:56them rest.
00:34:59Knox!
00:35:01Emei Udoka
00:35:01is going to call
00:35:02the timeout.
00:35:03This thing is down
00:35:03to 17
00:35:04with 7.59 left.
00:35:10Maybe barely,
00:35:11but this thing is
00:35:12down to 17 points
00:35:14as we all can be
00:35:15back courtside.
00:35:16We were starting to think
00:35:16maybe it was us.
00:35:17We had to blow out
00:35:18in Miami the other day,
00:35:19but now anything
00:35:21to think about
00:35:22if you're Steve Kerr?
00:35:22How close does this
00:35:23have to be to consider
00:35:25maybe putting your
00:35:26starters back in?
00:35:27Well, Emei not waiting,
00:35:29putting his starters
00:35:30back in.
00:35:31I think it's more so
00:35:32on the Rockets.
00:35:34They took the starters
00:35:35out in that third quarter.
00:35:37I think maybe you let
00:35:38him finish the third
00:35:39so you're up by more,
00:35:42but hey, listen,
00:35:43can't cry over
00:35:44spilled milk.
00:35:45Now Dylan Brooks
00:35:47is back in
00:35:48to try to run the show.
00:35:51So Shengguen
00:35:52backing down
00:35:54against Jackson Davis,
00:35:55shot clock at four.
00:35:58Jeeble, the team
00:35:59misses the little
00:36:00hook shot.
00:36:01Thompson again
00:36:02working hard.
00:36:04See Jackson Davis
00:36:05sacking off Thompson
00:36:06who didn't want
00:36:07to take the three.
00:36:08Brooks,
00:36:09five to sheet,
00:36:10working against
00:36:10Knox,
00:36:11tough shot.
00:36:14Screaming at the
00:36:15official,
00:36:16wanted a foul
00:36:17as Houston
00:36:19tries to restore order.
00:36:24Just joined
00:36:24as Houston
00:36:25was up
00:36:2631 points
00:36:27as Spencer
00:36:28taking a bump.
00:36:32Pat Spencer
00:36:33taking advantage
00:36:34of some run here
00:36:35under the bright
00:36:36playoff lights.
00:36:38Right here,
00:36:39if you would have
00:36:40told me before
00:36:40this game
00:36:41that Pat Spencer
00:36:43would have had
00:36:43more than
00:36:44Jimmy Butler
00:36:45and then Brooks
00:36:46taking the contact
00:36:48with a nice
00:36:49bloater,
00:36:50quiets the
00:36:50Golden State
00:36:51run a little bit.
00:36:54But again,
00:36:54Imei Adoka
00:36:55having to put
00:36:56his starters
00:36:57back in this game.
00:37:01This is a
00:37:0216-point game
00:37:03and we still
00:37:04have seven minutes
00:37:05left.
00:37:05Then you talk
00:37:08about the
00:37:08growing pains
00:37:09of a team
00:37:10trying to
00:37:11find its way
00:37:11in the postseason.
00:37:14This is a
00:37:14little moment
00:37:15here for Houston.
00:37:16How do they
00:37:16handle this?
00:37:18Moses Moody
00:37:19transition three.
00:37:21No good.
00:37:22The tip
00:37:22is up
00:37:23and in.
00:37:26Golden State
00:37:27has cut it
00:37:28to 14.
00:37:30And the
00:37:30Rockets fans
00:37:31are stunned.
00:37:32Kevin Knox
00:37:35credited
00:37:36with the
00:37:36basket.
00:37:38And boy,
00:37:38you can feel
00:37:39some urgency
00:37:39now in this
00:37:40place.
00:37:40It's a
00:37:4117-4 run
00:37:42by Golden State
00:37:45in the quarter.
00:37:45So Imei Adoka
00:37:55has reinserted
00:37:56his starters
00:37:56after thinking
00:37:58that their
00:37:58night was
00:37:59basically over.
00:38:02Into the
00:38:03corner,
00:38:03Thompson again
00:38:04not
00:38:04scares him
00:38:05to shoot.
00:38:07Offensive rebound,
00:38:08extra possession.
00:38:10As we come up
00:38:11on the midway
00:38:12point of this
00:38:12fourth quarter.
00:38:15The Rockets
00:38:15not nearly
00:38:16out of the woods
00:38:16just yet.
00:38:17Shanggu swallowed up
00:38:18but they're going to get
00:38:19Jackson Davis
00:38:20from the back.
00:38:26And right here
00:38:28Steph's ankle
00:38:29braces were off
00:38:30but news alert
00:38:32says
00:38:32there's potential
00:38:34if this thing
00:38:37gets any closer.
00:38:39Steve Kerr
00:38:40pacing on that
00:38:40sideline
00:38:41looking up at the
00:38:42clock
00:38:42looking back
00:38:43towards his bench
00:38:44you've got to
00:38:44consider
00:38:44look you've got
00:38:45veteran players
00:38:46their bodies have
00:38:46cooled down a little
00:38:47bit.
00:38:49In a closeout game
00:38:50you have an
00:38:51opportunity
00:38:52it knocks
00:38:53you take advantage
00:38:54of it.
00:38:54Basketball is a
00:38:55game of runs
00:38:55and crazier
00:38:56things
00:38:57have happened.
00:38:59There's so much
00:39:00time left.
00:39:03Everything going
00:39:04through Steve
00:39:05Kerr's mind
00:39:05Shangguyen
00:39:06able to hit
00:39:08on the second.
00:39:09one of two
00:39:11at the line
00:39:1215-7-9
00:39:14as he toys

00:39:32they'll get
00:39:33Shangguyen

00:48:35with these
00:48:35guys
00:48:36being seated
00:48:37so long
00:48:37Candace
00:48:38so now
00:48:38they're a little
00:48:39stiffer
00:48:39not in the
00:48:40flow of the
00:48:40game
00:48:40I don't think
00:48:41three player
00:48:42would take
00:48:42that chance
00:48:42no no
00:48:43game six

00:48:44flows out
00:48:44at home
00:48:45just like
00:48:48everybody has
00:48:49a price
00:48:49I wonder
00:48:50what the
00:48:50score would
00:48:51be
00:48:51because
00:48:51a closeout
00:48:53game
00:48:53if you have
00:48:54an opportunity
00:48:55a chance

00:48:57even a last
00:48:58possession
00:48:58put back
00:49:01attempt by

00:52:35three quarter

00:55:04Moses Moody
00:55:04trip to the
00:55:05free throw line
00:55:06and let's not
00:55:07forget Moses Moody

00:55:11lineup
00:55:12last game
00:55:13as they inserted
00:55:15Buddy Heald
00:55:16so
00:55:16this has got
00:55:18to be a little
00:55:18bit of positive
00:55:19in life
00:55:20if you're
00:55:21Steve Kerr
00:55:22looking at the way
00:55:22Moody has played
00:55:23Moody started
00:55:24the first two games
00:55:25of the series
00:55:26with the switch
00:55:28with Jonathan
00:55:29Kaminga
00:55:30starting game
00:55:30three
00:55:31game that
00:55:32Jimmy Butler
00:55:32missed
00:55:33with that
00:55:34pelvic contusion
00:55:35Jonathan Kaminga
00:55:37by the way
00:55:37unavailable
00:55:38tonight
00:55:38as he deals
00:55:39with illness
00:55:40hope to have
00:55:41him available
00:55:41on Friday
00:55:43now free throws
00:55:47coming up
00:55:48at the other end
00:55:48of the floor
00:55:49for Houston
00:55:50123-107
00:55:52with 138
00:55:53to play
00:55:53Shea Center
00:55:58was rocking
00:55:59the other night
00:56:01and what a scene
00:56:01that is going to be
00:56:02on Friday night
00:56:03Candice
00:56:08everyone was wondering
00:56:09how this young Houston
00:56:10team would take care
00:56:11of business tonight
00:56:12the pressure of trying
00:56:13to extend their season
00:56:14and this little
00:56:16second half
00:56:17hiccup aside
00:56:18they certainly
00:56:19passed the test
00:56:20with flying colors
00:56:21I understand
00:56:24the NBA
00:56:25loves putting on shows
00:56:26and it's entertainment
00:56:27but this
00:56:27these last three minutes
00:56:29have just been
00:56:29theatrical
00:56:31it's a good word
00:56:33Reed Shepard
00:56:36is going to be
00:56:37the infounder underneath
00:56:38Holliday will hoist
00:56:42and hit
00:56:43so that gets it
00:56:46back to 20
00:56:47with 90 seconds remaining
00:56:48Moses Moody
00:56:51and Cohen State
00:56:52not quite done
00:56:53just yet
00:56:5422 points
00:57:02but Moses Moody
00:57:05most of his work
00:57:07coming
00:57:07on this game
00:57:09and gotten out of hand
00:57:10Nate Williams
00:57:11corner three
00:57:11a little bit too much
00:57:12rebound
00:57:13Santos
00:57:14but what a pass
00:57:16up the floor
00:57:17to Jackson Davis
00:57:19reset
00:57:21they get it to Knox
00:57:22and he puts it in
00:57:23and he's fouled
00:57:24so that'll put Knox
00:57:27at the free throw line
00:57:28and it's now
00:57:32the 15 points
00:57:33so Kevin Knox
00:57:39again who signed
00:57:39a couple of 10-day
00:57:40contracts late in the year
00:57:42finally got a rest
00:57:44of the season deal
00:57:45on March the 23rd
00:57:47to earn his spot
00:57:48with his team
00:57:49for the rest of the season
00:57:50127
00:57:55to 113
00:58:00and Golden State
00:58:06showing no quit
00:58:07as the Rockets
00:58:09try to run down
00:58:10the clock
00:58:11as Green
00:58:12knocks it down
00:58:13from beyond the arc
00:58:14you talk about
00:58:16playoff experience
00:58:17that's you want
00:58:20on your roster
00:58:21Moses Moody
00:58:22little short flick
00:58:23rebound Shepard
00:58:25and that looks like
00:58:27Steve Kerr is gonna
00:58:28call off the dogs
00:58:30so the Houston Rockets
00:58:34are gonna take game five
00:58:37and get this series
00:58:39back to San Francisco
00:58:41on Friday night

00:58:50two teams
00:58:50so Aaron Holiday

00:58:58four
00:58:58the C&P coach's
00:59:00decision
