The Blazers had arguably their 2nd best player Nurk out with injury AND Lillard separated his Ribs in game 2 and played with an injury for the rest of the series. They struggled against Portland in 3/4 games too, it was just that thanks to having a hobbled Lillard he was unable to take over games and they also were playing without Nurk . Even if you had a healthy Lillard the series probably goes to 6 as he probably finishes off at least two of the games were Blazers took a 17+ points lead in (Games 2 and 4) and with Nurk the Warriors may not have won the series.
Skip really underestimates the impact of what having one of your 3 best players being out with injury, and your best player playing hobbled can do. This time they are playing a team that is healthy so not having KD hurts them a lot.
