After a hard-fought series with the Memphis Grizzlies, the Golden State Warriors are heading back in the Western Conference Finals. Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson led the Warriors to another series win in the NBA playoffs and will face either the Phoenix Suns or Dallas Mavericks in the next round.
Although the Grizzlies fell apart down the stretch of Game 6, which they lost 110-96, they gave the Warriors a very tough fight with Ja Morant sidelines. They totally dismantled them in Game 5 and were down by just a single point entering the fourth quarter. Memphis has a lot to be proud of after this season.
Curry gave some very high praise to the Grizzlies after the Warriors clinched the series. He said that each team made each other better and that the Grizzlies would be around for a long time.
"They made us better, I'm sure we've made them better.. They'll be here for a long time just because they have a lot going on for them"

It is always very tough to predict the future of how NBA teams will do because there are so many moving parts. But in the case of the Grizzlies, it's possible that this is the beginning of a very impressive run. The team is led mostly by younger players and displayed an impressive amount of resilience as they won the second-most games in the entire league.
Morant said that he is looking forward to more matchups with Curry and the Warriors. If the Grizzlies keep growing, there will be plenty of them in high-stakes situations.
Curry's 29 points and Game 6 Klay doing his thing got the Warriors the win in front of their home crowd. Now, they will wait to see who they play in the conference finals.
