Even When Everything Goes Right, The Warriors Are Too Good for the Blazers

How good are the Golden State Warriors? No. Seriously ask yourself that question.

They are on pace to be only the third team to win four NBA titles in five years. They swept the Blazers in the Western Conference Finals even though the Blazers played the best basketball of many of their players' careers.Take a look at Meyers Leonard. He had never scored 25 points in a game let alone a half, but he did that.

Yes, Meyers Leonard had 25 points in the first half!

He hit more threes in the first half than he made the first four years of his career.

He ended up with 30, but even with his first half burst, the Blazers led by only four points. Come the end of the game, CJ McCollumn and Damian Lillard combined for 54 points, but even though Boogie Cousins, Kevin Durant, and Andre Iguodala were all out and Klay Thompson missed 14 of his 21 shots, the Warriors still won the series in spectacular fashion.

That's how good Golden State is.
