OAKLAND — At times, the Warriors had moments of brilliance. At other times, they showed apathy. In other words, this felt like a regular-season game.

It wasn’t, though. It was Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals. The Warriors still prevailed with a 116-94 victory over the Portland Trail Blazers on Tuesday at Oracle Arena. At times, the Warriors emulated the intensity they had in a competitive six-game playoff series against the Houston Rockets. At other times, the Warriors played as if this game took place in December.
