Two triple doubles by Curry and Green leads to sweep, by Golden State Warriors over Portland Trailblazers

Tonight, history in the NBA has been created. Golden State Warriors won the Western Conference Finals for the 5th straight year. They swept Portland in Portland, as Stephen Curry and Draymond Green had triple doubles each in their victory. The next game for the Golden State Warriors will be May 30, in the NBA Finals. In the Eastern Conference finals, Milwaukee is winning by the series score of 2-1. Toronto won game 3 in Toronto last night. Hopefully, the Raptors will win game 4 tomorrow night in Toronto. Furthermore, the Golden State Warriors won tonight without Kevin Durant; DeMarcus Cousins; and Andre Iguodala. All three of these players were injured, but their services were not needed by the victorious Warriors. Tonight's game went into overtime, and the warriors defense came through in the 4th quarter and overtime. In the extra period, Draymond Green hit a clutch three pointer to extend Golden State's lead to 4 points. After that final basket by Green, Portland scored the final two points of the game. The Trailblazers could not tie the game, as they went for the win on a three point attempt. Yet, Damian Lillard could not hit the final three pointer. Next, the Golden State warriors get a well deserved rest. In game 1 of the NBA finals, the warriors will be in better shape if Kevin Durant and Andre Iguodala are back in the starting lineup. Cousins may come back to play in the NBA finals, which would help the Warriors tremendously. As for home court advantage, the Bucks would have this huge benefit in the NBA Finals if they win the Eastern Conference Finals. If Toronto wins the Eastern Conference finals, the Golden State Warriors will have home court advantage. In this penultimate paragraph, the Golden State Warriors are the first team to reach five straight NBA finals since the 1966 Boston Celtics. For the third straight game, the Warriors overcame a huge double digit second half deficit to persevere in the overtime period. The Warriors had five players scoring in double figures, and Stephen Curry led the way with 37 points. The Warriors started Jordan Bell and Alfonso McKinnie, in place of the injured Durant and Iguodala. This new lineup worked out for the Warriors, as they were down by four points only at halftime. In closing, Klay Thompson's big three pointer at the end of the 2nd half was a huge bucket as the regulation ended with the score at 111 apiece. In the NBA Finals, the Golden State Warriors will be going for their 3rd straight finals victory. It could be the 4th finals ring for Livingston; Green; Curry; Thompson; and Iguodala. Enjoy the picture of Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson, as the splash brothers played another solid game. The NBA finals will have a new champion emerging from the Eastern conference, and the Raptors or Bucks will give the Warriors a run for their money. Peace!!
