Rockets advance to Western Conference Finals: (Video) Harden sees off Clippers.
The Warriors saw off the Memphis Grizzlies in the last round which followed up their series sweep of the New Orleans Pelicans in the opening round of the playoffs.
Stephen Curry and Co. faced their first bit of adversity against Memphis, but as required by a championship outfit, they responded when they had to in order to avoid a premature end to their season as they secured a 4-2 series win.
Meanwhile, the Rockets had to wait a little longer to secure their place in the Western Conference Finals, as they were taken the distance by the Los Angeles Clippers last time out.
Houston were in a 3-1 hole in the series, but James Harden and Dwight Howard in particular led them to an incredible comeback which was completed in Sunday’s Game 7 decider.
Harden had 31 points as the Rockets sealed the all-important win, and now the conference finals pits the top two seeds in the West against each other, with an identical situation in the East as the Atlanta Hawks take on the Cleveland Cavaliers.
