The Warriors squeezed out a one-point victory over the Rockets when James Harden couldn't get a shot off in the final possession. Stephen Curry scored 33 points, had six assists and one memorable bench celebration (though his best shot of the night didn't count for anything). Meanwhile Harden, who ignored an open teammate streaking to the hoop on the final play, took out his postgame frustration on a curtain and hurled a random F-bomb.

Artist Ryan T. Simpson was so inspired by this year's playoffs, he decided to create portraits of some of the players involved. My favorite, however, is this image of Spurs coach Gregg Popovich.

The Curtain
I love a Hot Clicks that goes full circle. I started with a story about a curtain and will end with a song of the same name.
