The game was never close. Not for a second. The Warriors led by 17 at the end of the first quarter, had 72 points at halftime and hit 9 of their first 12 3-pointers. None of Golden State’s starters played a minute in the fourth quarter. This was a massacre.

Brown was following San Antonio’s police escort into Oracle Arena. In his mind, he had hit the jackpot. He didn’t have to deal with any traffic.But several police officers surrounded Brown’s Range Rover. One cop even got on his loudspeaker to yell at him.

Shanahan and Lynch are aware of the reality: It’s impossible to restock an entire roster in the offseason. Developing young players like Robinson and Witherspoon often lasts a few years, and you have to be willing to take the lumps the come with it.

Jeff Van Gundy doesn’t think Gregg Popovich’s rant on Monday was sometime of act. Van Gundy thinks San Antonio’s coach meant every word when he said Monday about Zaza Pachulia’s knock down of Kawhi Leonard.

The bottom line is that basketball pundits are latching onto ways to discredit the Warriors. They’ll say they play dirty. They’ll say they play opponents who have major injuries. Leonard joins Kevin Love and Kyrie Irving as star players to suffer an injury against Golden State.

One thing is for certain: for people who are predisposed to dislike the Warriors , Sunday is more fuel. Should the Warriors bounce the Spurs without Kawhi, the “lucky” narrative will resurface like a Hatorade-guzzling zombie.

The Warriors told the media afterwards he was battling some left knee soreness. Acting coach Mike Brown said Iguodala looked hobbled, which is why he didn’t play in the second half. Iguodala was unavailable to reporters in the locker room after the 113-110 Game 1 win.
