Rockets extend streak over Warriors while LeBron James questions Lakers
Eric Gordon scored 25 points with four three-pointers, Chris Paul converted two free throws with 68 seconds left on the way to 23, and the Houston Rockets outplayed the Golden State Warriors without the league’s scoring leader James Harden for a 118-112 victory on Saturday night. The result means the Rockets have now won all three games against the NBA champions this season. The teams met in the Western Conference last season, where the Warriors won in seven games. “You can come in here and win on a Monday night in February or a Tuesday night in November or December,” Paul, who had 17 assists on the night, said. “But in the playoffs is when you have to beat a team four out of seven times. It’s great tonight that we won this but in two days Y'all will forget this. We all will.” Former Laker Julius Randle had 24 points for the Pelicans, who looked in sync and motivated as they slowed LeBron James and the Lakers’ push to qualify for the playoffs. James had 27 points and 12 assists, and Brandon Ingram scored 29 points for Los Angeles. After the game, James appeared to question whether his new teammates had the experience to handle a playoff run. “How many know what’s at stake if you’ve never been there?” James said. “I’m playing devil’s advocate, you know? It’s kind of a fine line when you talk about that, because when you’ve never been there or know what it takes to actually shoot for something like that, sometimes you’re afraid to get uncomfortable.
