Warriors collapse under pressure, Kings play like experienced playoff vets in bizarre Game 2 role reversal
CBSN
Sacramento played like the defending champ on Monday, with Golden State looking like the postseason newbie
SACRAMENTO -- Horrifically sloppy turnovers. Unquestionably silly fouls. Dubious shot selection. One catastrophic loss of composure.
After riding the energy and emotion of the team's first playoff victory in 17 years, it wouldn't have been surprising to see a bit of a letdown for the Sacramento Kings in Monday's Game 2 -- a "welcome to the playoffs" moment against the confident and battle-tested defending NBA champs.
Instead it was the Kings who looked the part of the cool, collected veterans while the Golden State Warriors transformed into fragile newcomers folding under pressure during Sacramento's 114-106 Game 2 win at Golden 1 Center.
