Every time the Golden State Warriors and Oklahoma City Thunder played this season, many fans likely found themselves wishing for a rematch in the playoffs.
Well, that wish has been granted.
A day after the Dubs clinched a spot in the Western Conference finals, the Thunder beat up the San Antonio Spurs in Game 6 of their series to set up a date with the defending NBA champs.
The Warriors won all three regular-season meetings, but there was never any shortage of excitement–or points. There was an average of 230 total points per game, no real surprise when it comes to the two most efficient teams in the NBA.
There’s going to be instant-classic potential every game. Here’s a complete look at the early odds and complete schedule:
