The NBA finals series is back in San Francisco, tied up at 2-2 after Golden State’s game four win over Boston. Follow all the action:
Draymond Green has been ordinary in the first four games but he’s started this game strongly. He just dived into the first row trying to save a loose ball, barreling into a couple of courtside spectators.The Warriors have opted for Otto Porter jnr as the second forward alongside Andrew Wiggins with Draymond Green at centre and Kevon Looney benched. Splash Brothers Steph Curry and Klay Thompson are in the backcourt.
Boston centre Robert Williams has been cleared of his nagging knee injury to start alongside Al Horford and Jayson Tatum in the frontcourt with Marcus Smart and Jaylen Brown the guards.We are under way at the Chase Center with Draymond Green winning the tip for the Warriors and lobbing it into Otto Porter jnr for the first bucket close to the rim.
Steph Curry is closing in on his first Finals MVP, averaging 34.3 points per game, 6.3 rebounds and 3.8 assists. All Star forward Jayson Tatum has 22.3, 7 and 7.8 for the Celtics and his support cast has been much more reliable than Curry’s Warriors crew. Boston are 7-0 in the playoffs in matches coming off a loss, including game three of this series but the Warriors are favourites for this clash at the Chase Center.My fearless tip:
