Why the Warriors are holding off the Rockets for a play-in place because of Klay Thompson’s comeback

Klay Thompson has always been an essential component of the Golden State Warriors championship equation,

right behind Stephen Curry and Draymond Green.

After all, he has the same moniker as some of the greatest shooters in NBA history,

along with Reggie Miller, Ray Allen, and Steph Curry.

Thompson and the Warriors haven’t had a good season,

though, as they’ve put themselves in a situation where a few setbacks might cause them to lose out on the Western Conference playoff and play-in tournament race.

Before the Warriors’ game against the Miami Heat on Tuesday night,

they were in a situation where a victory was desperately needed.

The Warriors might not have needed to win this game,

but it was as close as this club had gotten to one all season.

The championship history of this team became evident in South Beach as the Houston Rockets began to close the gap on Golden State in the standings.

In a game that they dominated from the start, the Warriors trounced the Heat 113-92.

For the whole season, the Warriors have struggled with confidence, particularly with Thompson.

However, in this game, Klay was the one who put in the most effort for his team.

Is this the game that everyone remembers and points to as the Warriors regaining their composure?

This might be the game that helps Thompson overcome his recent setbacks.

With the season on the line, the Warriors must find a way to overcome their opponents, regardless of where they finish in the standings.

The three other clubs in the 7–10 range of the West standings at the moment are the Los Angeles Lakers,

Sacramento Kings, and Phoenix Suns. Golden State has a total record of 5-6 versus these three clubs this season. There is one game left between the Warriors and the Lakers.

The Warriors would like to climb the standings, but their route to accomplish so seems implausible.

Right now, it just important to keep their current position in the rankings and prevent the Rockets from passing them.

Whatever happens when these two teams meet on April 4,

Golden State will own the season tiebreaker because they have already defeated Houston twice this year.

Nevertheless, the Warriors are in peril and have a limited amount of time to make amends.

The Warriors are still optimistic about their chances of making the playoffs because Thompson is starting to heat up and the team’s confidence is still high.
