Golden State Warriors – San Antonio Spurs

One year ago, everyone was expecting the great confrontation, the team that had just managed to make a new record of wins in the regular season and the one that had the best performance on their own in the regular season. Oklahoma City Thunder interfered, eliminating Spurs to secure their own tickets for the final of the conference, but a year later we have the desired matches.

Golden State Warriors is one of the two teams that started the playoff with eight consecutive wins. Golden State has eliminated Portland and Utah and seems to be heading for a new Cleveland Cavaliers final, but first has to go through the number two team in the conference.

San Antonio won the first two regular season games. In the playoff, Spurs needed six matches to pass Memhis and six to overtake Houston. The most recent match was also the most convincing. The San Antonio team wound up with 114-75, limiting James Harden, the MVP candidate to only ten points. It was a negative record for him in the current season.
