Golden State bamboozled the Spurs 129-115 on Monday, becoming the first team to sweep all three opponents on their way to the NBA Finals. A perfect 12-0 record. It’s the team’s third straight trip to the championship, an unbelievable accomplishment reserved for the likes of Michael Jordan’s Bulls, Larry Bird’s Celtics and Magic Johnson’s Lakers. This Warriors have business to finish in June, but they’re already historic.

The Giants bashed three home runs and held on after a late-inning Cubs rally to take the first game of the series, 6-4.

After missing all of Games 2 and 3 with an ankle injury that was reaggrivated in Game 1, Kawhi Leonard has been ruled out for Game 4, Spurs head coach Gregg Popovich announced in his pregame press conference.

The Giants will be playing without outfielder Denard Span Monday night. Span was scratched from the lineup due to soreness in his left hand.

Until the Cleveland Cavaliers lost Game 3 of the Eastern Conference Finals at home to the Boston Celtics, it looked as if the Cavs and the Golden State Warriors would each sweep their way to the NBA Finals. We caught up with Murph & Mac in the studio Monday to get their take on all the playoff blowout wins, and whether or not they think this difference in talent level between NBA teams is good for the game of basketball.

Two days after Stephen Curry was on the business end of a screen from Spurs’ center Dewyane Dedmon that he deemed ‘dirty,’ the Warriors point guard was seen limping with an ice pack on his left knee following the team’s shoot around Monday morning.

Giants broadcaster Mike Krukow joined the Murph and Mac Show on Monday and said that Christian Arroyo’s clutch at-bat on Saturday proved he is going to be an impact player for many years to come.

The Giants fell to St. Louis 8-3 Sunday, missing an opportunity to sweep the Cardinals for the first time since 2001.

After being listed as probable to play Saturday morning, Warriors forward Andre Iguodala will play in Game 3 vs the San Antonio Spurs interim coach Mike Brown announced before the game. Iguodala will not be under a minutes restriction.

The Atlanta Hawks have reached out and secured permission to interview the Warriors’ assistant general manager sources have told NBA reporter Marc Stein.
