The Golden State Warriors Game 2 victory over the Portland Trail Blazers felt very, very sweet.
After news broke before the game that Kevin Durant and DeMarcus Cousins will likely be out for the rest of the Conference Finals, the game felt a little bit more important. And when the Warriors trailed by 15 at the half, it felt really important.
But the vintage Warriors showed up just in time, with an offensive explosion from Steph Curry, a dominant two-way performance by Draymond Green, and a clutch defensive play courtesy of Andre Iguodala.
