There is a reason the Warriors were the number one seed in the Western Conference. Through the first 3 games of the series, they flashed plenty of superb play, but tonight New Orleans was hit with the whole package. Sure, the Pelicans made a run in the fourth quarter, but there never grew a strong belief that the comeback would culminate in a home victory.
From the opening tip, Golden State never let off the gas and the Warriors' key players made their presence known immediately. Stephen Curry and Draymond Green were outstanding in the first half, scoring 20 a piece.
