The conference finals kick off tonight, and first up we have the champs facing the playoff underdogs from Portland. Facing a team without Kevin Durant (at least for game 1), can the Blazers continue their unlikely run?

Dom Flaim: Not terribly. I thought Portland would beat OKC, though I picked them to lose last round I wouldn’t have been shocked either way. On a 1-10 scale, maybe a 2 or 3 given that Golden State to me was all but a lock. Nobody on the other side of the bracket would have shocked me much.
