In a game that wound up being decided by three points, just about every individual possession was crucial. And each bucket Podziemski, Hield or even Quinten Post (who added two triples of his own) hit felt like momentum shifters (or intensifiers).

After grabbing a split of the first two games in Houston, Golden State used the home floor to its advantage on Saturday night, even with Jimmy Butler out of the lineup. Stephen Curry looked like his old self, as the Warriors used a strong fourth quarter to come away wit ha 104-93 victory, taking their second lead in the best-of-seven series.

The Warriors beat the Rockets in Game 4 in part because of Dillon Brooks fouling Jimmy Butler on a 3-pointer, a call some in the national media took issue with.
