It must have felt tremendous for the Warriors to see the Houston Rockets trudging off the floor, confidence fractured, after the unceremonious demolition of the structure they spent so much time and energy constructing. It had to be gratifying for the defending champs to hear Houston coaches and players ransacking their minds in a search for answers they'll never find after being thoroughly outplayed in Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals. The only relevance of Game 1 for the Warriors is that gave them a 1-0 lead in a best-of-seven series.
