Warriors: Curry and Hield Lead The Way to 103-89 Victory

The Golden State Warriors booked their ticket to the Western Conference Finals after defeating the Houston Rockets 103-89 in Game 7. Stephen Curry, despite a slow start, finished with a triple-double (22 points, 10 rebounds, 7 assists) while Buddy Hield lit up the first half with 33 points, including 22 from beyond the arc.

We had 48 minutes to deeply draw from us, everyone defended very hard,” appreciated the “chef” Curry, who can still aim for a 5th NBA title.

We were 10th (to the west) at one point in February, we finished the season in an emergency to qualify, so it was difficult to work on our alchemy along the way. Succeeding in such a performance in a match 7 is very important. Mission accomplished, therefore.

Next up: The Warriors await the winner of the Minnesota Timberwolves vs Los Angeles Lakers series, which will conclude on Tuesday.

Pacers Shock Cavaliers in Game 1

The Indiana Pacers created a stir in the Eastern Conference by defeating the Cleveland Cavaliers 121-112 in Game 1 of their conference semifinal series. The Pacers, led by Tyrese Haliburton (22 points, 13 assists) and Andrew Nembhard (23 points on 5-of-6 three-point shooting), controlled most of the game against the regular-season-best Cavs.

Despite the best efforts of Donovan Mitchell (33 points) and Evan Mobley (20 points, 10 rebounds), the Cavaliers struggled from three-point range (9-of-38, 23.7%) in their loss. Game 2 is scheduled for Tuesday in Cleveland.
