Last season’s playoffs started off with a bang.
Two teams with similar playstyles on offense — fast paced and laden with ball and personnel movement — went to war in a first-round series that was the first ever between the Golden State Warriors and the Sacramento Kings.
The Warriors came out on top after a grueling seven games, capped off by a transcendent 50-point performance by Stephen Curry in Golden 1 Center in Sacramento. Kings’ fans last memory was of Curry pushing an imaginary button, as if to mock their trademark “Light the Beam” celebration.
