Yesterday one of the most anticipated games took place at the Toyota Center in Houston, Texas. The Houston Rockets versus the Golden State Warriors. This game was the most watched West Finals first game in history. According to TNT, the game had an average of 8.8 million viewers in total. This series is going to be a hard tough one to call because both of these teams are phenomenal! Last night the Warriors took the Win with the score being 119-106, now this was an extremely close game and it definitely kept everyone on their toes. The series is now 1-0.
