The new-look Houston Rockets roared back to beat NBA champions Golden State 122-121 on Tuesday, spoiling a celebratory night at the Warriors' Oracle Arena in Oakland. The Warriors marked the opening of the new season by handing out their championship rings and raising their 2016-17 championship banner. Despite a furious rally by the Rockets, the Warriors thought they had won the game with a last-gasp basket from Kevin Durant, but the clock had expired a fraction of a second before the ball left Durant's hand and it was the Rockets celebrating at the end of the night.
