It s the Rockets nemesis! The Warriors eliminated the Rockets five times in the past 10 years and won two away games.

The Warriors defeated the Rockets 103-89 in the tiebreak battle today, eliminating the Rockets 4-3 with a big score, avoiding being reversed 1-3, while also completing the seventh Black Seven feat in history and successfully advancing to the semi-finals.
For the Rockets, they were eliminated by the Warriors in the playoffs again, and they were once facing a desperate situation of 1-3 behind with a home advantage. Although they won two consecutive games and dragged into tiebreaks, they lost to the Warriors at home in the tiebreak battle. This result is indeed too dramatic and makes many people recall the previous battle of fire.
It is worth mentioning that in the past 10 years of playoffs, the Rockets and the Warriors have played against each other five times, and the Rockets have never won once, and the Warriors have won every time. Not only that, the Warriors also won the tiebreaker twice away, and they are also the only team to defeat the Rockets multiple tiebreakers.
In today's tiebreak battle, Hilder stepped up, scored 9 three-pointers, and scored 33 points, becoming the Warriors' winning contributor, but he didn't score a single point in the last game. The Rockets probably didn't expect that Hilder would decide the winner and lose the tiebreaker and series today. In the 2018 Western Conference Finals tiebreak, the Rockets also suffered a tragic defeat. In this game, the Rockets once missed 27 consecutive three-pointers.
In the Harden era, the Rockets and the Warriors were already old enemies. Harden led the Rockets to the playoffs for eight consecutive years, and in four of them they met the Warriors in the playoffs, two of which were in the Western Conference Finals. They could enter the Finals as long as they win, and even won the championship. However, the Rockets lost, and Harden missed the championship because of this, and later left the Rockets to win the championship. After the Warriors eliminated the Rockets in the past four years, they all reached the finals and won two championships.
After four years of reconstruction, the Rockets achieved the second place in the Western Conference this season and finally returned to the playoffs. Unexpectedly, they met the Warriors again in the first round, and were also blacked by the Warriors. It seems that the Warriors are indeed the Rockets' nemesis. Even if the Rockets have completely changed a group of people, the Warriors' lineup has undergone great changes, but the Rockets still cannot beat the Warriors. If the Rockets want to pass the Warriors level, they may have to wait until Curry retires.
