Yeah, Emay kind of said, you know, this is the identity that the Rockets have built, you know, over the past two seasons. This is who they are. They're going to be a team that likes to muck things up. They like to get physical. They enjoy that. They thrive off of it because it allows them to –

as long as the officiating is in their favor, it allows them to thrive and be the best version of themselves. Obviously, this is a team that's pretty up and down offensively, but defensively, if they can get into you physically at the point of attack, they can blow up your actions. Now it becomes a battle of wits.

And as you saw in game two, technical fouls, flagrant fouls, scuffles, dust-ups, that's kind of the game they enjoy because... it takes the air out of the room. And I think for this Rockets team especially, if you look at how they've been able to defend Curry tonight,

being able to be aggressive at the point of attack, not letting him get free off of those actions that he's thrived on for over a decade, you can kind of see where the Rockets can find their advantages. Now, obviously, heading into Game 3, there are going to be some counters to those, and there's going to be some changes.

But I think as far as this series remains chippy and competitive, the Rockets have that in their back pocket.

I just saw confidence. Obviously, this was pretty much the biggest game of their lives, because if you go down 0-2 to a Warriors team this experienced, you're not getting control back in this series. So obviously, you know, from that perspective alone, Jalen knew he had to bring it. He's a game and he knew that finding a rhythm early.

If you've watched Jalen over the years, that's the biggest key to having to seeing the games he has that are productive. When he gets cooking early, you know, the Rockets kind of feed into him more. They allow him to progress and go through his reads, and they play off of his aggression. And ironically enough, you know, that thing started early defensively. He was locked in on Curry.
