A loss in Game 1 brought out some tactical changes, an even more intimidating Dub Nation, and some sensational performances at the half. The Warriors are looking for revenge, and to do so they have found a way to completely shut off Anthony Davis. After he erupted for 30 points and 23 rebounds in Game 1, Draymond Green’s smothering defense has held him to just 4 points at the halfway stage.
