NBA WESTERN CONFERENCE 2016 FREE

The Warriors, who fell behind 35-22, lost their last Game 7 at home: 94-86 to Phoenix in the Western Conference finals on May 16, 1976. “They won a world championship last year, and they’ve broken an NBA record, and people are already talking about it before the playoffs started, this may be the greatest team to ever lace them up in the history of the NBA,” Thunder coach Billy Donovan said. Durant had just nine points on five shots in the first half.īut Oklahoma City dictated the tempo with snappy passes and the hard, aggressive rebounding that had been such a part of its success this season. Iguodala made a pretty bounce pass through the paint to Green for Golden State’s first basket, and his smothering defence on Durant kept the Thunder star without a shot until his 3 at the 5:45 mark in the first. Iguodala replaced Harrison Barnes in the starting lineup and what a move by Kerr, who did the same thing last year in crunch time. Curry hit one over 7-foot Steven Adams in the third, and Thompson wound up with 30 3s. Shaun Livingston’s breakaway, one-handed dunk late in the third provided a big lift off the Warriors bench.Ĭurry and Thompson each topped the previous record for 3s in a seven-game series, 28 by Dennis Scott and Ray Allen. They’ve definitely never seen a 73-win team down 3-1.”Īndre Iguodala joined the starting lineup for just the second time all season and the 2015 NBA Finals MVP hung tough against Kevin Durant, who scored 27 points on 10-for-19 shooting. “People have seen teams down 3-1 before but they ain’t seen many. “No one ever had any doubt that we could get this done,” Draymond Green said. Having a clutch performance in a Game 7, that’s Steph Curry,” Kerr said.Īnd Golden State’s beloved “Strength In Numbers” catchphrase coined by Coach of the Year Kerr was needed in every way.
