If a chastening 109-94 defeat to the Houston Rockets in Game 2 wasn’t enough to deal with, the Golden State Warriors are now also sweating on the health of Jimmy Butler.

The series vs. the Rockets is tied 1-1 and has gotten increasingly chippy. But the Warriors aren't complaining, even after Butler's injury.

Draymond Green heard the chants from Houston Rockets fans during their Game 2 win over the Golden State Warriors. But thanks to Boston Celtics fans, it didn’t faze him.

Even as the physicality escalated on the court in Game 2 of the Warriors’ first-round playoff series against the Houston Rockets, coach Steve Kerr believed the fans inside the soldout Toyota Center crossed the line.

On Wednesday night, the Golden State Warriors lost to the Houston Rockets, evening up the series at 1-1. Jimmy Butler landed awkwardly on his back and did not return, promtpting some panic by Warriors' fans, and Houston added some fuel to the fire.
