The Golden State Warriors are officially back in the Western Conference Finals.
They are getting prepared to face off against the surprisingly strong Dallas Mavericks in the WCF, which start on Wednesday night.
These two teams have been red hot lately.
That means that these Western Conference Finals could end up being incredible.
That’s especially true if the Warriors’ two biggest stars keep firing as they have been.
The Splash Brothers have made the exact same amount of threes this playoffs.

Steph Curry and Klay Thompson of the Warriors have been pushing each other lately from beyond the three-point line.
Curry has landed 42 threes in these playoffs.
That’s the exact same number of threes that Thompson has made during the same time period.
The Splash Brothers are heating up again and that’s bad news for the Mavericks – or anyone going up against them.
Return Of The Splash Brothers
Curry and Thompson are looking like their regular selves right when it matters the most.
The two players have had up-and-down seasons.
Curry has hit a few rough patches this year and also experienced an injury.
Meanwhile, Thompson returned to the NBA after more than two years away.
Following their returns, Curry and Thompson weren’t looking like the iconic Splash Brothers who have won three championships together.
However, things started to turn around recently and both Curry and Thompson have started to find their rhythms.
Now they are looking terrific, making great shots, and moving as if injuries never plagued them.
Fans of the Warriors are surely excited to see these two superstars playing as they are right now.
But beating the Mavericks is no sure thing – they have surprised other teams, again and again, this season.
Few people expected Dallas to beat the Suns in the last series but that’s exactly what they did in a mammoth, shocking way.
Curry and Thompson might be in fine form but they still may be taken down by Luka Doncic and his Mavs.
