The explosive and experienced Golden State Warriors will look to overcome the suffocating Boston Celtics defense when the teams meet what is expected to be a highly competitive NBA Finals.
The Warriors, who are playing in their sixth Finals in eight years and who have won three titles over that span, have home-court advantage and will be the more rested team after finishing off the Dallas Mavericks in five games in the previous round.
The “Dubs” could also be at full strength for Game One on Thursday. Gary Payton II, Otto Porter Jr., and Andre Iguodala were full participants in practice on Tuesday after they all missed time with injuries this postseason.
