It was a great season for the Houston Rockets as they proved that they were good enough to go against the Golden State Warriors. Unfortunately, good enough was not enough to beat them for Game 7 which ended in a 101-92 loss for the Rockets.
For the Golden State Warriors, it was a close call as they found themselves behind by 11 points with only 24 minutes to go. The Warriors looked dead on the court and it looked like they would miss the NBA Finals this year. However, during the second half of the game, the Warriors came alive while the Rockets forgot how to shoot.
During the third quarter, Stephen Curry scored 14 points of his 27 points. This helped turned the game around for the Warriors from an 11 point deficit to a 7 point advantage. In addition, once the Warriors took the lead, they kept it thanks to 11 points from Kevin Durant.

Smoother Transactions and Several New Options
BetPhoenix.ag is at it again and this time, they are improving their cashier. After evaluating the Cashier and transactions platform, many changes were implemented to make transactions run smoother and allow more options to be integrated into the system. For starters, customers will see a cleaner and more user-friendly interface as soon as they log on.
One of the major changes implemented is the ability to process “person to person” payments within the cashier. This could only be done by phone in the past, so this constitutes an important addition to the platform for expediting the P2P process.
Another major inclusion, this time in the payment options section, is that customers will also be able to use “eXpress” -- a popular cash method that uses an e-wallet -- within the cashier as one of the newer alternatives in the payment offer layout. Furthermore, there is yet another innovative option included in the redesigning: the acceptance of CRYPTOCURRENCY, very soon also on the cashier. This change is intended to broaden the spectrum and coverage of payment methods, which is also why it will soon be integrated into the cashier as well.
