INTENSE GAME 6 OR EASY PLAY FOR GOLDEN STATE WARRIORS
By Reni M. Valenzuela PhilBoxing.com Tue, 16 Jun 2015
 Curry.
King James delivered and was phenomenal in the just concluded Game 5 of the best of seven NBA Finals series between the Cleveland Cavaliers and Golden State Warriors. Yet his triple double feat was rendered null and void by the breath-taking swings of playful Stephen Curry, this season?s Most Valuable Player.
Lebron was dethroned as he failed anew to ?carry? his team, while the un-guardable Curry ushered the boys of Golden State sweetly and beautifully into a position one-game away from owning the 2015 NBA Championship trophy.
Dave Blatt and his Cavaliers did the right thing, so it seemed. Perhaps the momentum was just too much in favor of the confident Warriors during the fourth quarter in which game period ?star power? provided Steve Kerr an easy way into another enjoyable basketball Moment for each of them. It was an exciting and euphoric quarter for the fans of Steph and his playmates so much so that nobody inside the Oracle court in Oakland, California wanted to sit down even until the game was over, or long after the curtain was rolled down and the lights were turned off.
Let?s see in game 6 if the fans of the Cavaliers who would troop to the Quickens Arena will be as exuberant on their feet in Cleveland?s home court, cheering for Lebron and the Cavs, the entire fourth quarter. David will again be his own Goliath tomorrow. Blatt or don?t blink.
On your feet.
