Okay, so, I’ve been diving deep into this whole Warriors and Rockets thing, and let me tell you, it’s been a wild ride. It all started with me just wanting to understand why these two teams have such a beef. I mean, they’re both in the same division, so obviously, there’s gonna be some competition, but this feels different.

I dug into their history, and man, the games they’ve played against each other? Intense! They’re always so close, always going down to the wire. I specifically remember this one game on December 11th where the score ended up being 91-90. Can you believe that? Just a one-point difference! That’s nuts!
So I watched a bunch of their games, new and old. I even found this one recap talking about how the Rockets finally broke their losing streak against the Warriors in this crazy NBA Cup match. They talked about it like it was some kind of huge deal, calling it a “raucous end”. And apparently, the Rockets hadn’t won against them in like, 15 games! That’s a long time to be on the losing end.
- I started keeping track, you know, like a real fan.
- Noted down scores, key players, all that jazz.
- I even started to pick up on some of the players’ names.
This one dude, James Harden, he was apparently the star player for the Rockets during their, like, golden age or something. And for the Warriors, everyone keeps talking about Steph Curry. Then there’s this Jalen Green guy on the Rockets, seems like a pretty big deal too. He apparently scored these two free throws in the last few seconds of a game to win it for the Rockets. Talk about clutch!
Then, things got a bit tricky. I wanted to see how this rivalry affected their current season. The Rockets, at one point, had this five-game win streak going, which was pretty impressive. But then I saw that the Warriors, even though they were doing well, were considered “desperate”. Made me wonder what was going on behind the scenes. I found out that they were beaten by the Rockets in this NBA Cup quarterfinal recently. 91-90, again! It’s like these two teams are destined to have these nail-biter games.
Anyway, I’m still learning more about these two teams. There is a lot of history and the competition is still fierce.

My Takeaway
This whole thing has shown me how intense rivalries can get. It’s not just about the games, it’s about the history, the players, the fans, everything! It’s been a fun deep dive, and I’m definitely gonna keep following these two teams to see what happens next. I mean, how can they top two games that ended 91-90?
