Warriors arrive in Houston for Game 3 against Rockets
The Golden State Warriors have touched down in Houston for games 3 and 4 of their playoff series against the Rockets. They left Oakland International Airport on Wednesday morning.

OAKLAND, Calif. (KGO) -- The Golden State Warriors have touched down in Houston for games 3 and 4 of their playoff series against the Rockets. They left Oakland International Airport at 10:25 a.m. and safely landed before 2:30 p.m.

When the Dubs touched down they tweeted: "Hello Houston." And they mean business.

There was lots of thinking on this flight for Steve Kerr. The big question the head coach is mulling over is if he'll play or rest Steph Curry, who's recovering from an ankle injury. ABC7 News Sports Anchor Larry Beil says the team will not make this a game time decision and we'll know by Thursday morning during practice.

The Rockets are hoping to overcome a 2-0 deficit in the playoff series. They lost to the Dubs on Monday night when Curry sat out at the game.

Curry tweeted: "This squad is determined man. One man down, next man up."

ABC7 News Sports Anchor Mike Shumann is in Houston to cover the next playoff games. His live reports from Toyota Center will begin on Thursday at 4 p.m. on ABC7 News. You can also follow him on Twitter for a behind-the-scenes look at the Dubs' prep for Game 3.
