Here are the keys for the Oklahoma City Thunder and Golden State Warriors to come out victorious in Game Seven of the Western Conference Finals.

In sports, there are very few things (if there are any at all) that are better than a Game 7. In the NBA Playoffs, we have what looks to be a classic one taking place Monday night when the Oklahoma City Thunder and Golden State Warriors square off in the deciding game of the Western Conference Finals.

For the Thunder, watching a 3-1 series lead evaporate couldn’t have been fun, but don’t think for one second that they are not confident heading into Monday’s showdown. With stars like Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook along with their supporting cast, OKC is not backing down from a challenge.

At the same time, the Warriors have new life after being pegged as the next great NBA team to not win a championship just two games ago. Now, the series is back on their home court for the biggest game of the season as two time MVP Steph Curry and shooting ace Klay Thompson are heating up at the right time.

Here are the keys to victory for both the Thunder and Warriors in Game Seven.
