The NBA Finals series between Golden State and Boston will come close to a decision tonight (Monday through Tuesday), after it becomes clear the winning identity in the fifth game held in San Francisco. Past statistics show that the winner of the fifth game of the playoff series in a 2: 2 situation, also wins the entire series with a probability of over 80 percent. Therefore both teams know that this game will be decisive, and are willing to give everything.
Golden State is the one that comes with more positive momentum and higher confidence, having been aided by a one-time performance by Steph Kerry who sniped 43 points in Game 4 of Boston. On the other hand, the Celtics have not yet lost two consecutive games in the playoffs, and have often shown a special character this season, even in difficult games away from home.
A Warriors victory would bring them a single victory distance from a seventh championship in history. Boston, on the other hand, is looking for the 18th ring in its history.
