Curry did a great job in this game and saved the Warriors once again. Thanks to this win, the Warriors now not only lead the series against the Rockets but also give Butler a little more time to recover. By the way, there are rumors that Butler may return to the court as early as Game 4.
He was even rumored to play in Game 3, but he didn’t. Honestly, I don’t mind it now, because we clearly saw the Warriors can win without him.
And if Butler does come back, I think that would just be too much for the very physical (and kinda dirty) Rockets.
Game 3 was a clear statement that the Rockets aren’t on the Warriors’ level yet. Just look at Jalen Green, he struggled big time, only 9 points on 4-11 shooting.
