The Rockets are 38-39 after four consecutive losses, with a winning rate of less than 50% again, and the Warriors, who are tenth in the West, have 4.5 wins, the Rockets only have 5 games left, and the Warriors have 6 games left, and the Rockets have no chance of entering the top 10 again.
The Rockets' 11-game winning streak was followed by a wave of 4-game losing streak, and if it was a wave of 15 consecutive wins, the ending would be completely different, and the remaining five games would be not easy to play Magic, Clothing, Jazz, Trail Blazers, and Clippers.
The Warriors' remaining six games are less difficult than the Rockets, so the Rockets can only start looking at the offseason, trading some players for fresh blood, and then making the playoffs next season.
