“They’re different kind of in terms of their skill sets, how they play,” Caserio said, via the Houston Chronicle.

Yes, again, Houston, the Warriors are forever your problem.
Perhaps the Warriors should claim the Rudy Tomjanovich phrase he coined in 1995 after the Rockets completed their improbable championship run to back-to-back titles.
