Stephen Curry and the Golden State Warriors lock horns against Jayson Tatum and the Boston Celtics in an epic battle for the NBA title. And the fans are expecting a great Game-1 to start off the Finals.?

After a two-year absence in the playoffs, the Golden State Warriors are straight through to the NBA Finals. The Celtics are back in the Finals for the first time since 2010 under head coach Doc Rivers.

The much experienced and time-tested Warriors go up against a relatively young and energetic Celtics team.

The Golden State Warriors welcome the Boston Celtics to the Chase Center for Game-1 of the Finals. And in this year?s playoffs so far, the Warriors haven?t lost a game at the Chase Center.

It would be interesting to see whether the record will still be intact after the first game.?
