Patrick breaks down the Golden State Warriors' 116-101 win over the last-place Houston Rockets at Chase Center. It was a fun game (and a much needed win) with Klay Thompson erupting from 3 for 42 points, but it's just a momentary respite as the W's continue to move through their "Treading Water Era". The other big story was rookie Patrick Baldwin Jr.'s impressive showing, reinforcing the notion he should get some regular minutes with so many guys out.

(0:00) These kinds of Klay Thompson games are highlights of the season
(2:19) Beating the Rockets is nice but doesn't really tell us much
(4:04) What's next in the "Treading Water Era"
(6:33) Still living and dying by the 3
(9:28) Patrick Baldwin Jr. is STILL a steal
(14:08) Jonathan Kuminga's up and down night filling in for Draymond Green
(15:06) Kevon Looney steady as always
