He’s had two consecutive 30+ point double-doubles in the last two games. Steph has been phenomenal so far, and the Dubs would hope he continues his brilliant form.

For the longest time, Kendrick Perkins has not really had any faith in the Warriors. While the others were jumping on the bandwagon, Perk kept doubting them. However, after the Dubs went up 3-0 over Dallas, he ate his words.

He talked about the same after the Celtics tied the series 2-2 at home late last night. Perk added and went on to call Steph one Finals MVP short of becoming the greatest PG of all time.
