Golden State Warriors vs Houston Rockets Livestream 2nd May, NBA 24-25: The Golden State Warriors (48-34) host the Houston Rockets (52-30) at the Chase Center on May 2, 2025, in Game 6 of their tightly contested Western Conference First Round series.
Golden State leads the series 3-2 but dropped Game 5 in Houston, 131-116, giving the Rockets momentum heading back to San Francisco. Houston lit up the scoreboard behind Jalen Green\'s 30-point performance and Alperen Şengün’s strong interior presence, outshooting the Warriors from the field and showing their improved defensive coordination.

The Rockets boast the 11th-best offense in the league, averaging 104.8 points per game, and the 4th-best defense, allowing just 103.6 points. Golden State, on the other hand, relies on the offensive brilliance of Stephen Curry, who’s averaging 23.4 points on an impressive 48.8% shooting clip. But the Warriors struggled defensively in Game 5, allowing Houston to shoot 45.4% from the floor. Despite their 3-2 lead, inconsistency on both ends raises questions about their ability to close out the series in Game 6.

The Golden State Warriors aim to secure a First Round series win with a victory in Game 6 and move on to the Western Conference Semifinals. With a history of playoff success and home court advantage, they’ll look to lean on veteran leadership.
For the Rockets, this is a do-or-die situation. A win forces a Game 7 back in Houston, where their young core and emerging stars will try to complete the comeback. The outcome may hinge on which team executes better under high-pressure playoff minutes.
