Show Notes

What would have happened if the Warriors actually tried Tuesday? In Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals Tuesday, Golden State turned in what was effectively a lax, regular-season effort. They still beat the Portland Trail Blazers by 22 points. What would have gone down had the Warriors played more than five, maybe 10 minutes of focused, playoff-caliber basketball? Would they have won by 30? What about 40? The Blazers just don’t have the players to match up with Golden State — even without Kevin Durant and DeMarcus Cousins in the fold. On top of that, they don’t have the schemes to get the most out of the guys they have. Within the first few possessions of Game 1, it was clear that the Warriors would be able to coast to victory.
