Dose: Warriors take Game 1
The Warriors waltzed into Houston for Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals on Monday night, and while it wasn't a blowout, or necessarily an easy win, the Warriors outscored the Rockets 63-50 over the second half and ran away with an emphatic 119-106 win over the No. 1 seed – on the road – to take homecourt advantage in the young series. For the Warriors, who started a playoff series on the road for the first time since 2014, Kevin Durant led the way with 37 points and three 3-pointers on 14-of-27 shooting, but from a fantasy standpoint, his peripheral numbers (3 rebounds, 1 assist, 0 steals, 1 block) were a bit lacking. Klay Thompson hit 9-of-18 shots and 6-of-15 3-pointers for 28 points, four rebounds, two assists and two steals in 42 minutes.
