Well what do you know, the two teams at the beginning of the year that everyone picked to be in the NBA Finals are there yet again. For the 4th straight year, the Cleveland Cavaliers will be taking on the mighty Golden State Warriors for an NBA championship.
The Warriors came from behind in the second half to beat the Rockets by 9 Monday night, winning 101-92. Led by Steph Curry’s amazing 3-point shooting in the 3rd quarter & Durant’s dominance in the 4th, the Warriors were too much for Harden and the Rockets to handle, who as a team shot a combined 7-44 from 3-point land. To add fuel to the fire, the Rockets also set an NBA record for missing 27-straight 3-pointers at one time too, which arguably was the deciding factor in the game.
Ahead of Game 1, the Warriors will be huge favorites to win the series, and fans aren’t too excited to see it. Following the Warriors win Monday night, NBA twitter was sounding off about having to watch a 4th straight NBA Finals between the Warriors & Cavs, and it's safe to say many people are sick and tired of seeing the same old story line.
We went ahead and compiled of some of Twitter's reactions to the Warriors & Cavs meeting again in the Finals, which you can see for yourself below. Game 1 goes down this Thursday night in Golden State. Who you got winning it?
