Brooks was one of the key men for the Rockets as they forced the first-round series to Game 6 on Friday in San Francisco.
He scored 24 points, shooting seven for 13 from the field, as he and fellow guard Amen Thompson locked down Curry and Jimmy Butler respectively on the defensive end.
Following contact from Brooks on an attempted three-pointer during the first quarter, Curry was frustrated that a foul was not given, remonstrating to the officials.

“If I had an injured ankle, I would attack that ankle every single time. So whatever they’re saying on the broadcast, they can keep saying it,” he said.
Whatever the intentions, the strategy worked as Curry finished with just 13 points in 24 minutes.
Draymond Green said he noticed the focus on Curry.
He said: “I think it라이브 바카라 pretty obvious, but it is what it is. I’m not one to come to cry to you about what the league should do.”

“So the rule is once the shot has been released, you’re allowed to hit a guy라이브 바카라 arm. And so what라이브 바카라 happened in the league this year is, players always are, they’re going to outsmart the rules,” Kerr said.
“I’m very confident that next year the league will fix it because it라이브 바카라 only a matter of time before somebody breaks a thumb or a hand or whatever. But these are the rules.”
