Game 7 Okc Vs Warriors

Game 7 Okc Vs Warriors 9,6/10 2089 votes

Thompson's performance allowed the Warriors to return home for a Game 7, where they knocked off the Thunder to advance to a second straight NBA Finals. In terms of best Bay Area performances or moments, I would lock in Thompson's Game 6 vs. OKC, Madison Bumgarner's Game 7 relief outing against the Kansas City Royals in 2014, and the Joe Montana. Russell Westbrook scored a season-high 34 points and added 10 rebounds and nine assists to help the Oklahoma City Thunder roll past the Golden State Warriors, 108-91 on Wednesday night.

Although the Golden State Warriors aren’t tipping off against the Houston Rockets in the 2020 postseason, the two rivals are finding ways to stay connected.

On Wednesday, the Rockets joined the Warriors at the top of one category in the postseason record books. With 17 3-pointers against the Oklahoma City Thunder, the Rockets tied Golden State’s record for most makes from beyond the arc in a game seven.

Houston’s 17 long-distance jumpers helped push James Harden and Russell Westbrook past Chris Paul’s feisty Thunder squad in game seven, 104-102. Robert Covington led the Rockets from deep, splashing 6-of-11 3-point attempts. Eric Gordon added five triples of his own.

Watch highlights from the Rockets 17 3-pointer night vs. OKC via YouTube:

Despite Houston’s furious long-distance effort, Westbrook and Harden combined for only 1-of-11 from 3-point range. As a unit, Houston capped off their game seven performance shooting 17-of-42 on 3-pointers.

The Warriors notched 17 3-pointers in 2016 against the Thunder as well. During game seven against Kevin Durant and Westbrook, Klay Thompson and Stephen Curry lived up to their Splash Brother nickname. The Golden State backcourt duo combined for 13 3-pointers against Oklahoma City. The Warriors finished their game seven victory shooting 17-of-37 from beyond the arc.

With the Warriors out of the playoff race in 2020, Curry and Thompson will have to wait till next season if they want to create some separation between Golden State and Houston in the game seven record books.

With their first-round playoff series and potentially player and team legacies all on the line, the Houston Rockets and Oklahoma City Thunder are underway in a decisive Game 7 on Wednesday night.

For Oklahoma City’s Chris Paul and Houston’s Russell Westbrook, it’s an opportunity for revenge versus the team that traded them last offseason. For James Harden, it’s a matchup against his former co-star.

All three of the All-Star guards and future Hall of Famers are still seeking their first NBA championship. With Paul now 35 years old and Harden and Westbrook both 31, they’re each quite aware that their window as an elite player won’t remain open for too many more years.

Roster

For at least one member of that trio, and potentially two, the 2020 journey will end on Wednesday night at the NBA “bubble” in Florida. In this case, the mantra of “win or go home” fits perfectly.

Houston technically is the host for Game 7, and to this point, the home team is a perfect 6-0 in the series. But with all playoff games held without fans at the bubble, all that really means is additional virtual fans and more piped in “home” sounds through the public address system. Thus, the perfect record for home teams in the series is probably coincidental.
