The NBA can feel a little predictable at times. Teams put together a core that just seems to win and win and win. The Showtime Lakers. Jordan’s Bulls. Duncan’s Spurs and Kobe’s Lakers. Whichever team LeBron was on in a given year.

But you have to admire the greatness. And the Warriors have it -- not just with Curry but with Thompson and with coach Steve Kerr, who’s making a case to up alongside Phil Jackson and Gregg Popovich as the best coaches of the last several decades.

And it’s never easy. The Celtics had the better of this game for maybe 42 minutes. The Warriors needed every last contribution from Wiggins, Poole and even the much-maligned Draymond Green.

That’s all for me for now. May we be blessed with a Game 7.
