The Rockets players who won two consecutive games in a row are full of expectations for the tiebreak battle. Shin Kyung said that after he finished the sixth game, he felt that he could continue to play the seventh game immediately. He couldn't sleep well in this series and didn't feel tired. He believed that this excitement helped him a lot.

Shin Kyung also said that he believes that although the total score is currently 3-3, the Warriors have never really defeated the Rockets in this round of the series. "I think the Warriors never really beat us in this series. We defeated ourselves, missed the free throw, and failed to grasp the simple scoring opportunity. When we were fully focused, we could play at a high level. Our team was talented and there was no reason to lose this game."

Previously, Zhu Meng said that we would have to fight head-on in the tiebreak battle. Dillon reminded his teammates to calm down and control their emotions. "In all these games before the tiebreak, we were calm and able to control our emotions. We wanted to help each other and do what our teammates should do. We need to cherish every ball. We don't need malicious fouls, technical fouls, or interrupt the game. We need to play well. We need to stay calm. We need to unite." The Rockets have been covered with red cheering T-shirts given to fans. The tiebreak will surely become a red ocean at home. Rockets owner Fertita also posted a poster of the Rockets G7. Who can become the winner of the tiebreak? Let's look forward to the answer being revealed.
