NBA 2022 Finals Game 6

The series swings back to the East Coast and the Warriors is the visiting team.

In the first quarter, the home team jumped on a double digit lead right away. But the visiting team came back and  cruised to a double digit lead of their own, up to the end of the first half.

With the momentum on the visiting team and the third quarter typically their quarter, the lead was barely double digits when the buzzer sounded at the end of 3/4s of this game. 

We go to the fourth quarter and this is when the hungrier and more poised team eventually came up with the W. 

Let us watch the full game highlights or relive it.

NBA Finals 2022 Set

Western & Eastern Conference Champs

The Golden State Warriors will host the Boston Celtics on June 2nd. And finally the games will be nationally televised.

The Warriors will hold home-court advantage in this series because they finished with a slightly better regular season record than the Celtics.

If the regular season games will be any indications, this will likely be an exciting if not a long series. 

The Warriors and Celtics split their regular-season games. Both teams have shown that they can win on the road as well on their home court, so one team winning their away games will probably be the key to this series.
