The Golden State Warriors are not supposed to be here. A late-season stumble, which included a costly home loss to the 34-48 San Antonio Spurs, forced them into an NBA Play-In Tournament face-off with the Memphis Grizzlies.

But the Golden State Warriors are not a normal No. 7 seed with their championship pedigree, and Wednesday's 109-94 loss to the Houston Rockets in Game 2 at the Toyota Center may be more than just a normal loss depending on Jimmy Butler's status.

Stephen Curry scored 31 points and the Golden State Warriors built a huge lead and held on to beat the Houston Rockets 95-85 on Sunday night in Game 1 of the first-round playoff series.
