OAKLAND — The negative narrative will always be Kevin Durant joined Golden State to join a slew of all-stars to help pave the way to his first NBA title. But in Game 1 of the 2017 NBA Finals, Durant showed no signs of letting anyone else do the earning for him. On top of that lethal two-pronged attack of Durant and Curry, the Warriors were ultra protective of the rock throughout the evening. The surprise may have been how dominant Durant was in his first Finals game with the Warriors. If there is a bright spot for the Cavs, it is that rarely do James’ teams start out the Finals with a win.
