Even though Durant was amazing last night, Iguodala made some big plays last night too, and his intelligence on the floor can't be underestimated. Not sure they win last night without him.
As far as holding big leads, have we not gotten use to that this postseason? The Warriors generally only play one quarter at full effort, and that's the third which they've dominated at an absurd level this year. They skate through the first half, and then turn it on. Jason14h said it, but it seems like most nights the biggest opponent they are fighting is boredom.

Well yeah there are a bunch of what if’s but the Rockets came awfully damn close and a major injury had a huge impact on last two games.
Sports has been full of dynasties. Bulls, Celtics, Lakers, Islanders, Habs, Oilers, Yankees etc. I don’t believe it means the sport is broken. My best memories as a Flames fan are when Oilers were a dynasty and Flames were competing like hell to topple them.
As a Rockets fan, it’s disappointing they lost but it was a very compelling season. Parity sounds great but it’s great to have a team to hate too.
