West Conf. Finals Game 2: Golden State Warriors 105-127 Houston Rockets - Warriors' Player Ratings

Nick Young - 5/10

Stat line: 6 points, 1 rebound, 2 assists, 2-of-6 from the field (all his shots were threes)

Swaggy P's role has risen to prominence in this series since the Warriors need all of their 3-point shooters to rise to the occasion to keep pace with the Rockets' relentless barrage of shots from downtown.

He will need better outings than this, however. He shot only 2-of-6 from 3-point territory, and despite having a slick handle and a good mid-range game, Young was unable to capitalize on his scoring ability from spots other than those behind the 3-point arc.

He was adequate as a playmaker and defender, but there is a large scope for improvement in his showing.

Note: David West, Zaza Pachulia, Jordan Bell and Quinn Cook are all unrated as they appeared for less than 8 minutes.
