Rewind: Bogut dominates the paint as Game 5 difference-maker

OAKLAND – If center Andrew Bogut plays this well over the next two games, the Warriors have a chance to beat the odds

Those odds remain long – nothing less than improbable – but overcoming them is slightly more conceivable after Bogut emerged from the shadows Thursday to lay the foundation of a 120-111 victory over Oklahoma City in Game 5 of the Western Conference Finals.

“The big fella was amazing tonight on both ends of the floor,” forward Draymond Green said after the Warriors returned to Oracle Arena and fought off elimination, leaving OKC with a 3-2 lead in the best-of-seven series.
