Iguodala + Golden State Walking Clean Into 3rd Straight Finals

12-0 is the playoff record the Golden State Warriors will take into the 2017 NBA Finals. Advancing out of the Western Conference really wasn't a surprise. It's the 3 straight clean sweeps of Portland, Utah and San Antonio that were. Golden State won the NBA title in 2015. Meanwhile in 2016 following a 73-9 regular season, they saw a 3-1 series lead disappear while losing Game 7 at home to Cleveland. Currently in the Eastern Conference Finals the Cavaliers hold a 3-1 series lead vs. Boston. Unless something unexpected happens, it'll be Warriors/Cavs III starting June 1st in Oakland. Either way the Western Conference champions will have 10 days off until Game 1 of the NBA Finals. It is basically championship or bust for the Warriors especially with the off season signing of Kevin Durant from Oklahoma City.
