Curry Goes Down

The Golden State Warriors(1) face the Houston Rockets(8) in the first round of the 2016 NBA Playoffs. During game 1 of the series Stephen Curry of the Warriors and Patrick Beverley of the Rockets got into a physical battle and that led to Curry getting frustrated.
Stephen Curry supposedly slipped on the court due to wetness and tweaked his ankle. He got taken out but eventually returned to complete the game and get the win for his team. For game 2 of the series Curry did not play due to his ankle. Game 2 was won by the rest of the Warriors team without their team leader Curry to take the series to a 2-0 lead.
Game 3, James Harden and the Rockets surpass the Warriors without Curry. Harden had a fantastic game and they took the win by only 1 point with the final score being 97-96 to get their first win of the series.
For game 4 of the series, Stephen Curry played the game to start but got hurt and they took him out for the rest of the game due to him re-tweaking his ankle. This time it is a little more severe with him now being out for a minimum of 2 weeks. The Warriors still managed to get passed the Rockets without Curry to get the win with a score of 121-94. Game 5 is tonight April 27 and they need 1 more win to win the series and move on, but they are playing this game without their team leader Curry. Do you think they will get the win, or will the Rockets get a must win game 5?!

Color Inspiration Continued

Continuing on with the color inspiration post for my blog, besides that the colors go with the NBA, the colors that i used for my blog inspire me in a way that it is really easy for the reader of my blog to see and recognize. I chose a plain black color for the text background and used white for the actual text itself. The background of the blog is a blue ruffled type texture that i talked about in the previous color inspiration post. I chose not to use that much red because red is hard to see against a black background, so i just went with blue, white, and black as the primary colors for my blog.
Blue has always been on of my favorite colors for 1 reason alone. The college basketball team, the Duke Blue Devils, coming from Duke University. They have been and always will be my favorite basketball team ever and their main color is blue. When it was time to choose a color for my blog blue worked out for me in both ways, it is the color of my favorite college basketball team, and it is also one of the three main colors that go with the NBA along with white and red. Those are a couple reasons why the certain colors that i chose to go along with my blog inspired me!
