Road, sweet road: Visiting teams go 4-0 in Game 1 of NBA conference semifinals, a league first

It doesn't exist so far in the NBA conference semifinals — where visiting teams combined to go 4-0 in Game 1s, the first time that has happened during this round in the league's playoff history. Indiana beat top-seeded Cleveland on Sunday in the opener of that East series, New York beat defending champion Boston and Denver beat West top-seeded Oklahoma City in their respective openers Monday, and Golden State topped Minnesota in Game 1 of their matchup Tuesday. "It's an amazing group of guys," Warriors coach Steve Kerr said after Golden State's win, one that came with Stephen Curry out for much of the game with a strained hamstring.
