PHOTO: Rockets see Warriors' premature 'sweep' advisory following Game 4 victory

Every sports fan has seen the annual plethora of championship T-shirts and paraphernalia that become useless once teams fall just short of glory.

Pre-made media advisories that don't pan out are of the rarer variety, but they're out there. Just ask the Golden State Warriors, whose bid for a Western Conference Finals sweep came up short against the Houston Rockets on Monday.

In a fitting postgame touch, the Rockets distributed the memos to each Houston player after their season-saving Game 4 win, with great satisfaction to be sure.
