Andre Iguodala led the bench unit's rescue effort for the Warriors, who regrouped in Game 1 of the NBA Finals and defeated the Cleveland Cavaliers 104-89 on Thursday.
On a night when Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson didn't reach double figures until late in the game, the Warriors still won as their substitutes outscored the Cavaliers' reserves 45-10.
That overwhelming advantage negated LeBron James' 23-point, 12-rebound, nine-assist performance as well as the game-high 26 points the Cavaliers got from Kyrie Irving.
