Why did we ever doubt the Warriors? Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals looked pretty easy for Golden State without Kevin Durant; the Warriors breezed, 116-94. Steph Curry equaled Damian Lillard and CJ McCollum single-handedly (36 points, 7 assists). Golden State is 9-1 vs Portland in post-season games in the last three years.
