OAKLAND, CALIF. – The Portland Trail Blazers suffered one of the worst playoff losses in franchise history on Wednesday, as the Golden State Warriors took a 2-0 series lead with a 110-81 victory.

The Blazers fell behind by 16 in the first quarter, but managed to rally to within one point thanks to an Evan Turner 3-pointer with just over three minutes to go before the break. Golden State responded by finishing the half on a 12-4 run and the Warriors cruised to as much as a 34 points lead in the second half.

Golden State had five players finish in double figures, led by Steph Curry with 19 points. Moe Harkless led Portland with 15.

After scoring a combined 75 points in game one of the series, Portland’s Damian Lillard and CJ McCollum combined to score just 23 points in game two. They shot a combined 9-for-34 from the floor.

The best of seven series now shifts to Portland. Game three is Saturday at 7:30 p.m. Listen to the game on CBS Sports Radio 1490 The Score.
