The Warriors and Celtics return to San Francisco for a pivotal Match 5 game with the NBA Finals tied 2-2.
After Stephen Curry put on one of the best displays of his illustrious career as Golden State beat Boston in Game 4 on Friday, the Warriors will have a chance to advance 3-2 at home.
The Boston team will be looking for more star Jason Tatum, who has yet to make a full game on the bigger stage. After letting Game 4 slip away from them on their home ground, the Celtics will attempt to steal another game on the road in hopes of a chance to raise the Larry O’Brien Trophy again in Boston in Game 6.
Let this be a reminder to you that the team that wins Game 5 in a series of seven games is tied 2-2 continues to win the series 82 percent of the time.
