After five tedious games, last night the Golden State Warriors closed out the Western Conference Finals against the Houston Rockets winning by the score 90-104. Many will argue that the Rockets had no business in the Conference Finals while others may forward the idea that the Warriors are simply the best team the NBA currently offers. Splash brother Klay Thompson gave the Warriors a 20 point output in the Game 5 win while the league MVP gave 26 points to lead all scores. Forward Harrison Barnes also chipped in 24 points of his own very quietly. The Warriors score in so many ways that it's rather hard to keep tabs on the #1 offense of the NBA. On nights when Curry and Thompson slump, you may see role players like Draymond Green and Shaun Livingston catch fire. Other nights, bench players like Barbosa and Iguodala contribute to the offensive onslaught. When matching up against Golden State, there is the constant task of applying defensive pressure to each and every player that eventually exhausted the Rockets in the Western Conference Finals. Stephen Curry will make his first NBA Finals appearance in which is set to begin next Thursday June 4th. His stellar 2015 year has been all he could hope for.
Golden Sate will match-up against the Cleveland Cavaliers in the NBA Finals who ended their Eastern Conference Finals opponent with a four game sweep. Expect this series to be the ride of a lifetime. While many fans are enticed by the outing Stephen Curry has produced this NBA Season, others are riding the wave of NBA legend LeBron James hoping he can bring the title home to Cleveland. What is most interesting about this series is the venues. The Quicken Loans Arena and Oracle Arena are both loud and offensive settings to play for the visiting teams. A quick scoring run can turn into a landslide, which will likely be the avoid of both these sound teams. Guards Kyrie Irving and Stephen Curry will line-up against one another. Expect the type of contention between these two to be similar to a the Direct TV and Xfinity competition. Already, NBA fans have combed social media sites with NBA Finals predictions. It's tough to say how things will turn out though, because bias may deter fans from seeing just how evenly matched these ball clubs are. June 4th sets the date for the NBA Finals. Be sure to tune in.
