This task is going to be very difficult for the Cavaliers, considering the “Splash Brother'” guard combination of point guard Stephen Curry and shooting guard Klay Thompson is statistically the most lethal backcourt duo in NBA history.
The Warriors are known for being a great shooting team; it’s what they thrive on, and they rarely ever take their foot off the gas pedal with their sharp perimeter shooting.
“Believe it or not, I really don’t think about our accomplishments,” said Thompson after the Warriors’ 96-88 victory over the Oklahoma City Thunder in Game 7 of the Western Conference Finals. “You’ve just got to go out there, and if you play focused and you play your hardest, that’s all you can do for yourself.”
Back in Game 6 of the Western Conference Finals against Oklahoma City, Thompson set an NBA playoff record when he went a ridiculous 11-of-18 from behind the arc. His record-setting 10th three of the night was a straightaway 28-footer over All-Star Thunder point guard Russell Westbrook, and it pulled the Warriors within four points with just under five minutes remaining at Chesapeake Energy Arena on Saturday night.
Thompson’s last bucket was a 25-foot dagger in transition from the right wing that gave Golden State the lead for good with 1:23 remaining.
