True Warriors
After tweaking his ankle in the series opener, Stephen Curry was unable to play in Game 2 as the Golden State Warriors looked to take a 2-0 against the Houston Rockets in their opening round series. The Warriors did not skip a beat as Klay Thompson stepped up in Curry's absence scoring a postseason career high 34 points to lead the Warriors to a 115-106 victory at Oracle Arena in Oakland. The Warriors also got a big game from Shaun Livingston, who got the start for Stephen Curry at Point Guard. Livingston scored 16 points and had six assists while Andre Iguodala continued his strong play off the bench scoring 18 points. The Warriors will re-evaluate Stephen Curry's ankle on Wednesday before the Warriors play the Rockets again in Game 3 with the series shifting to Houston. In other action the Toronto Raptors evened their series with the Indiana Pacers with a 98-87 win, while the Dallas Mavericks evened the Oklahoma City Thunder with an 85-84 win.
