Houston Rockets Physical Play RATTLES Warriors Veterans | Golden State Under SERIOUS Pressure?

Can the Houston Rockets outmaneuver the Golden State Warriors in their NBA playoff series? With the Rockets depth and physicality clashing against the Warriors experience, the stakes are high as the series shifts to the Bay Area.

Host Jackson Gatlin (@JTGatlin) is joined by former NBA player and Houston Rockets broadcaster Ryan Hollins (@TheRyanHollins) to discuss pivotal moments from Game 1 and 2, spotlighting Jalen Green's improved play and the strategic adjustments by players like Tari Eason and Jabari Smith Jr. They explore the pressure on the Warriors, especially with Jimmy Butler's potential absence, and how this could reshape the series dynamics. The conversation also highlights Alperen Sengun as the catalyst of the Rockets offense, the importance of maintaining defensive pressure on Steph Curry and the potential for a breakout performance from Dillon Brooks.

Tune in for an in-depth analysis of the Rockets strategies and expectations for Game 3, and discover how these insights could shape the series' outcome.
