Stephen Curry did what he does best, using his extraordinary 3-point shooting to power a 40-point game and the Warriors made it look easy against Houston, beating the Rockets 115-80 to take a 3-0 lead in the Western Conference finals.
The Warriors won the first two games by just five points combined. There would be no such drama in this one, with Curry leading them to a 26-point advantage in the second quarter.
MVP runner-up James Harden finished with 17 points behind 10-of-11 free throw shooting but made just three of 16 shots as the Rockets dropped three straight for the first time all season.
