NBA Western Conference Finals: Golden State Warriors survive elimination

The Golden State Warriors is not going home, yet.

Despite double-digit points from Kevin Durant with 40 and Russell Westbrook 31, the Warriors still manage to stave off elimination with a 120-111 victory over Oklahoma Thunders in Game 5 of the Western Conference Finals.

Golden State Warriors had home-court support and we know that the Splash brothers are lethal when they are on their game, as proven in Game 2. Curry scored 31 points while Klay Thompson chipped in 27 points. Draymond Green, whose kicking controversy continues in Game 6, added 11 points and Andrew Bogut has 15 points and 14 rebounds,

“We just did what we’re supposed to do. We’re supposed to win at home,” Curry said. “We know what we still have to do going forward. We knew if we didn’t win we were going home. There’s no other motivation you need.”
