Things are looking up for the Oklahoma City Thunder and if they win one more game in these 2016 Western Conference Finals, the Thunder will earn a trip to the 2016 NBA Finals.
Last night, OKC defeated Stephen Curry and the Golden State Warriors (118-94) and now lead the series (3-1) with Game 5 set for Thursday night in Oakland. Russell Westbrook has looked like a man on a mission during this series dominating on both sides of the ball. Westbrook has a triple double in Game 4 dropping 36 points with 11 rebounds and 11 assist. His teammates played big as well with Kevin Durant scoring 26 points and grabbing 11 boards. Thunder big man Serge Ibaka added 17 points with 7 boards.

For the Warriors, it appears they have lost their mojo and if they look to repeat as champions, they will need to win three straight games starting Thursday night. Klay Thompson was the leading scorer for Golden State scoring 26 points but Steph Curry only had 19 points going (6-20) from the field.
Are the Thunder headed to the Finals or do the Warriors have the composure to get the job done and win the next 3? Stay tuned to HHS1987 for all your NBA playoffs news and follow @eldorado2452 for all your sports news.
