The NBA Finals won’t end until Thursday. Or maybe Sunday. But even without a single game decided by single digits through the first five contests, this series is on the brink of going down as a classic. It’s Golden State 3, Boston 2 going into Game 6 on the Celtics’ home floor on Thursday night. The Warriors grabbed the lead in the series with a 104-94 win on Monday in San Francisco, the latest entry on a long list of gut-check moments in this series.

DENVER (AP) — Longtime Colorado Avalanche captain Gabriel Landeskog has been a calming influence in leading the team to the Stanley Cup Final for the first time since 2001. He’s grown up with the “C” on his sweater, taking over the role at just 19 years, 286 days old. He’s learned all about leadership in the decade he’s been captain, most notably to be himself. While his voice carries a lot of weight, so does his work ethic. It’s a style that served another longtime captain of the team well in Joe Sakic. He’s the last Avalanche captain to bring home the Cup.
