For the fifth consecutive season, the Golden State Warriors will be playing in the NBA Finals. They’ve continued to prove their dominance, sweeping the Portland Trail Blazers in the Western Conference Finals.
The Trail Blazers were nowhere near the Rockets in terms of truly challenging the competitors. Although they were up at least 17 in each of the last three games, the Warriors mounted a comeback and found a way to win.
As far as the Warriors’ second unit goes, the Finals will mimic the Western Conference Semifinals, not the WCFs. Their rotation will likely be cut down from the ten that played in the WCFs down to about seven like it was against Houston.
