NBA Playoffs 2018: Houston Rockets vs. Golden State Warriors Game 4 live stream: Watch online
The Golden State Warriors host the Houston Rockets on Tuesday night for Game 4 of the Western Conference Finals. Here’s how to watch this NBA playoff game online via live streaming.
Over the course of multiple seasons, Houston was artisanally designed to combat this specific Golden State team. Flush with shooters and switchable defenders around the James Harden fulcrum, Chris Paul was brought in as the nemesis to neutralize Steph Curry. This has been their best chance at dethroning the champs. They had the best record in the league, winners 65 games, including going 2-1 against the Warriors in the regular season. Now, they’re staring at a 2-1 deficit heading into Game 4.
The Rockets aim to salvage the series and some of their residual pride by tying it back up at two games apiece. None of the games have been particularly close so far, but Sunday night was something special. Game 3’s 41-point thumping doubled as Golden State’s largest playoff margin of victory and Houston’s biggest playoff loss.
Following the blowout, Mike D’Antoni called his team’s performance “soft” and followed with the usual jargon, throwing in a boxing analogy for good measure. “They gave us a haymaker and we went down,” D’Antoni said. “Again, we have short memories, have to. It’s 2-1, and we’ve got to get one up here. This next one, we’ve got to go get it.”

In the ramp up for the pivotal Game 4, D’Antoni put the onus on Golden State:
Ah yes, the old ‘they did too good and used up all their points’ theory. That’s a bold move by D’Antoni and I respect it. You gotta empty the bag of tricks after losing by 40.
Andre Iguodala, who moved into the starting lineup for this series, is listed as doubtful for Game 4 with a knee injury. Kevon Looney is the likely replacement if Iguodala is forced to sit. Looks like the pressure’s on.
Stats department. Through three games, Kevin Durant leads all scorers with 33.3 points per game and Draymond Green tops rebounds and assists averaging 10.7 and 7, respectively. Nene is the only Rocket with a positive +/- in the series at +1.
