The first meeting between the Golden State Warriors and Oklahoma City Thunder lived up to the hype on Feb. 6. With the game coming down to the final two minutes, the Warriors out-executed the Thunder to hold on for a 116-108 win.

That was Round 1 of three, and the second happens in Oklahoma City on Saturday (8:30 p.m. ET, ABC and WatchESPN). The Warriors are closing out a seven-game road trip; the Thunder have come out of the All-Star break sputtering, losing two of three, including a blowout home loss to the Cavs and a deflating road loss to the Pelicans on Thursday.
