The return of Kevin Durant rekindles the flame of the Warriors in the NBA Finals

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”6113″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”img-frame-small”][vc_column_text]The Golden State Warriors have not found a way to stop Kawhi Leonard and company and find themselves in an extremely complex situation ahead of Game 5 of the series against the Toronto Raptors.

In the history of the NBA finals, only one of 34 teams have had a had 3-1 advantage in Playoffs series and has made a comeback.

When was that?
The End of 2016, when the same Warriors had practically surrendered to the LeBron James Cavaliers to get the first championship in the history of the Cleveland franchise.

After losing Game 4 in California, Draymond Green said he had already been on the wrong side for a comeback like that. This, although it might sound romantic, is actually plausible because one of Golden State’s biggest players could have minutes this Monday.

After weeks of absence, Kevin Durant returned to training with the Warriors on Sunday and is included in the squad list as “in doubt” for the fifth game of the Finals, so he could return and the Golden State triathlon hopes practically they reside in what they can do about the stave.

If Durant returns to the level he is known for, Curry and Thompson remain the effective scorers they have been and the Warriors take better care of the ball, it is very possible that they will win in Canada and force the series to return to California to try and force a seventh encounter for the Larry O’Brien trophy.

In Game 5, the Warriors have an advantage of 1.5 units and, in those of complying with the line, they pay -110, something that could well be fulfilled if KD35 fulfills the expectations in its return. This is similarly related to the highs of 214 units, which are highly dependent on what the Warriors’ best scorer does.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
