After a slow first half, the Golden State Warriors defeated the Chris Paul-less Houston Rockets 101-92 in a decisive NBA Western Conference Finals game seven.
MVP candidate James Harden led his Rockets team up and down the floor during the first two quarters, but after halftime, Golden State locked in with Kevin Durants game-high 34 points and Stephen Currys 27 points with the majority of those coming in a splashed filled 3rd quarter.

Between the Cavs and the Warriors, 1 to 5 all-stars may be on the court at the same time. And considering the familiarity with both teams, NBA fans should be excited once again to witness LeBron James vs The World Part 4.
