The Golden State Warriors will face the Cleveland Cavaliers in the Finals for the 2nd straight year, after winning game 7 at home by 8pts against OKC. They became the 10th team in postseason history to come back from a 3-1 series deficit. Kerr made an adjustment to the starting lineup, giving Iguodala his 2nd start of the season. The Warriors fell behind by as many as 13 in the 1st half and trailed by 6 at halftime. Golden State had only 42 first half points, the fewest they've scored at home this season. But the Warriors rallied in the 3rd quarter, outscoring the Thunder 29-12 - with 12pts being the fewest that Golden State have allowed in a playoff 3rd quarter in the shotclock era. With OKC trailing by 4 with 1:18 to go, Ibaka fouled Curry whilst attempting a 3. Curry made all 3 free throws and the Thunder were unable to score another field goal. Curry finished with 36pts and 7 3-pters, whilst setting an NBA record 32 3's in a 7-game series. Thompson has 21pts on 6 3-pters, after missing his initial 7 shots. Durant had 27pts and Westbrook 19pts, 13asts, 7reb.
