to be, so we wanted to take advantage of it,” Curry said of completing the sweep of Portland.

Curry was part of more history Monday night. He and Green both recorded triple-doubles, the first time in NBA playoff history a team had two players do that. Curry had 37 points, 13 rebounds and 11 assists. Green had 18 points, 14 rebounds and 11 assists.

The Warriors played their sixth consecutive game without Kevin Durant, who has been sidelined with a right calf injury, and Demarcus Cousins hasn’t played since April 15. They were joined on the list of injured Monday night by Andre Iguodala (calf).

For the third game in a row, the Warriors won after trailing by 15 points or more. Yes, more history. They were down 95-78 with 1:43 left in the third quarter

and the Moda Center rocking.

“We’ve been here before,” Curry said when asked the secret to these comebacks. “We’ve seen everything. We’ve had every experience you can imagine.

“Three starters down,” Curry continued. “Everybody stepped up and played amazing minutes.”

Nobody played more minutes than Curry (47), though Klay Thompson (46) and Green (42) were right there too,.

Thompson had 17 points albeit on a 7-of-21 clip. Kevon Looney (12 points, 14 rebounds) and Alfonzo Mckinnie (12 points) came up big off the bench..

The Warriors could’ve avoided overtime had Curry not stepped back for an open 3 that was called for a travel. But Curry set up Green for an open 3-pointer that gave the Warriors a 119-115 lead with 39.6 seconds left. Afterwards, Green talked trash to Portland’s bench.

Giants starter Andrew Suarez (0-1) saw his first pitch of the game end up midway up the left field bleachers courtesy of Acuna, but didn’t give up any more runs until Austin Riley’s two-run home run in the sixth, his third of the season.

The left-hander, recalled from Triple-a Sacramento, gave up three earned runs, walked four and struck out five.

Soroka made it look easy in retiring the first 15 batters against the Giants and was so dominant it wasn’t hard to envision the 21-year-old finishing the whole thing off with a no-hitter or perfect game.

That possibility ended courtesy of Crawford, who opened the sixth with a home run over the centerfield fence to get the Giants within 3-1. It was the first home run Soroka had surrendered in 61 1/3 innings.
