The Golden State Warriors celebrated prematurely after taking a 3-1 lead over the Houston Rockets in the playoffs. However, in Game 5, they were overwhelmed by a Rockets team fighting for survival, revealing the Warriors' vulnerabilities due to age, fatigue, and injuries. The match saw the Warriors unable to compete effectively, ultimately leading to their loss and necessitating a Game 6. Coach Steve Kerr acknowledged he did not have his team prepared, a striking admission before a critical playoff game.
