The Golden State Warriors move on to the conference semifinals, not bothered for a moment by the Houston Rockets despite the facing elimination stuff. James Harden looked like he’s trying to do it on his own, Dwight Howard played his final game for the team, and a messy, ugly season ends for them without even putting up a fight.
