In a previous NBA playoff game, the Houston Rockets defeated the Golden State Warriors who played at home 115-107. After this game, the Rockets, who won two consecutive games, have tied the total score of the series to 3-3. Next, both sides will return to Houston to prepare for the G7 game. This tiebreak battle will also determine who can enter the Western Conference semi-finals.

In this game, the Rockets' starting power forward Amen Thompson's performance was still able to maintain a good level. Amen played 35 minutes and 32 seconds in the game, made 5 of 13 shots, 0 of 1 from outside the three-point line, and 4 of 6 free throws, and scored comprehensive data of 14 points, 7 rebounds, 2 assists and 3 steals. He also had 2 turnovers and 2 fouls, with a plus-negative value of +10. Amen's performance on the offensive end can only be considered sloppy. He did not show particularly outstanding finishing ability, nor did he score more points. His performance in passing and organization is not particularly outstanding. He should have done better in this regard. However, Amen's performance on the defensive end is still extremely outstanding. His advantages in physical talent and athletic ability are very outstanding. He also works very hard on the defensive end. His vitality and enthusiasm are visible to the naked eye. He also plays a huge role in the defensive end. Amen's overall performance is still relatively stable, and he has also made his own contribution to the team's victory.

In the NBA regular season this season, Amen played 69 games in 82 games, averaging 32.2 minutes per game, averaging 14.1 points, 8.2 rebounds, 3.8 assists, 1.4 steals and 1.3 blocks, 2 turnovers and 2.4 fouls, with a shooting percentage of 55.7%, a three-point shooting percentage of 27.5%, and a free throw shooting percentage of 68.4%, with a plus-negative value of +3.9. In the playoffs, Amen averaged 32.3 minutes in the first six games, with averaging 14.3 points, 6.5 rebounds, 3.3 assists, 1.8 steals, 0.8 blocks, 2 turnovers and 2.7 fouls, shooting percentage of 47.8%, three-point shooting percentage of 33.3%, and free throw shooting percentage of 63.3%.

Compared with the regular season, Amen's performance on the offensive end in the playoffs actually declined to a certain extent. With the playing time almost unchanged and the number of shots increased, Amen's scoring ability and finishing ability at the basket were not fully displayed, and his performance in passing and organization has actually declined. Of course, Amen still has a very outstanding influence on the game on the defensive end, and he is still a very excellent defender. In the G7 series, if the Rockets want to maintain this victory momentum, the team also needs to try their best to do better in every link. In this case, Amen also needs to perform better on the offensive end.
