Check Down Radio: Are the Rockets Ready to Topple the Warriors?

Listen below to an excerpt from our weekly Check Down radio broadcast, which streams live on Tuesday mornings at 8:00 on 91.1 WSPN and Instagram Live (@CheckDownSports).

0:30   Fronte shares his thoughts on Houston being ranked #1 in a variety of power rankings

2:00   Mando: “I’m going out on a limb here…I’m picking Houston to upset Golden State”

2:50   Fronte responds: “Do I think that will happen? No absolutely not!”

4:15   Fronte’s response to Mando’s stats supporting Houston: “I don’t care about all the regular stats!” 

4:45   Mando: “But here’s one stat that does matter…Rockets are 27-3 with Paul and Harden both healthy”

8:00   Mando concedes that he’s certainly in the minority of Houston supporters: “I think they’re at least as good as Golden State”
