Oklahoma started strongly, as has been the case for much of the series, and took a six point lead into half time.

However, the Warriors dominated the third term, outscoring their opponents by a whopping 17 points, to take an 11 point lead into the final quarter.

The Thunder managed to get within four points in the dying minutes of the match, before the Warriors pulled away again to record an eight point win.

The NBA finals series begins on June 2.
