The Golden State Warriors overwhelmed the Portland Trailblazers 116-94 in Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals with the breezy confidence of an impressive beer pong shooter at a college frat party.
Blazers-Warriors game felt like it could have been played in January. Blazers can’t get it done with regular-season intensity. Even Warriors’ bench looked comfortable.

Steph Curry tied his #NBAPlayoffs career-high with 9 three-pointers in the Game 1 win. The only other players to make 9+ threes in more than one postseason game are Ray Allen & Klay Thompson, with two each.
