The second-seeded Rockets continue to work through a Steph Curry problem in this series, where the future Hall of Fame sharpshooter has delivered a series of dagger 3s as he averages 26.0 points in the series so far. He played a non-starring role in Game 4, though, as the Warriors took command of the series with a 109-106 win driven by big nights from Jimmy Butler, who went for 27-5-6 and hit 12-of-12 from the free throw line, and Brandin Podziemski with his 26 points on 6-of-11 shooting from 3-point range.
Facing elimination, Houston gets to return to the Toyota Center, where the team went 29-12 in the regular season.
