US media: Rockets are the first offensive in 2018, and the top five in defense this year, and they still lose to the Warriors

May 5th In the NBA playoffs, the Rockets lost to the Warriors 89-103 at home, and were eliminated 3-4 in the series.

After the game, US media ClutchPoints further summarized the Rockets' record of being eliminated by the Warriors in the playoffs in several years.

"The Warriors have eliminated the Rockets five times in the past 10 years.

Although the Warriors only ranked seventh in the regular season this time, it doesn't matter.

They still eliminated the Rockets.

Look back to their history in the past 10 years:

2015 playoffs Warriors 4-1 Rockets

2016 playoffs Warriors 4-1 Rockets

2018 playoffs Warriors 4-3 Rockets

2019 playoffs Warriors 4-2 Rockets

2025 playoffs The Warriors 4-3 Rockets 2025's Rockets are already completely different from the ones from James Harden and Dwight Howard in 2015. But it doesn't matter whether the Rockets rank first in the league in offense like in 2018 or the defense is in the top five in the league like this year. The Golden State Warriors can meet their expectations every time. Maybe it's no surprise that something like this happens again." ClutchPoints wrote.
