Intro:

Post-game sound after the Houston Rockets beat the Golden State Warriors 128-115 in Game 4 of the Western Conference Finals on Monday night at the Toyota Center in Houston, Texas.

Script:

SOUNDBITE (English): Kevin McHale, Houston Rockets Head Coach:

"I mean, I thought it was really important for us to get out to a good start. But regardless of the start, it's a long 48 minute game. You very seldom win the game in the first few minutes but you could kind of set a tone. And I thought that our start got us juiced up and got the crowd into it. And just, we needed that but also we needed to have feel their make runs and then counter back. And it just ends up, any game you play in, you want to be ahead and make them chase you. And I told our guys, that's our goal, is to, we got to get ahead in Golden State and have them chase us. And it's punch, counter punch and hopefully you can make the last run and we got to win a road game."

SOUNDBITE (English): Steve Kerr, Golden State Warriors Head Coach:

"Well we had climbed back into the game. We got it within ten (points) at the half. And Steph (Stephen Curry) was walking around the lockeroom. Everybody was checking on him and he seemed fine. So the emotions were good, we thought we had a good chance to win the game and we went back out there and played."

SOUNDBITE (English): James Harden, Houston Rockets Guard:

"You know, we got stops early in the game. We got off to a big lead because we were defending. The second quarter we let up a little bit. we gave them 37, I think, points in the second quarter, which is too many. Luckily we were up in that first quarter pretty big. But, just we got to sustain four quarters of really good defense against this team."

SOUNDBITE (English): Stephen Curry, Golden State Warriors Guard

"Just, I felt like I was in the air for a long time and trying to brace yourself. And once I hit the ground, kind of hear voices from trainers and people were kind of just tell me to take my time and not rush yourself getting up. And you want to make sure that you pass all the tests that they needed to do, so that I could get back out on the floor. And that's what happened."
