NBA Playoffs: Steph Curry, Warriors sweep short-handed Jazz out of the postseason

The Jazz had their best playoff run since 2010, but were overmatched against the mighty Warriors

There were plenty of good vibes in Utah after the Jazz won Game 7 on the road a few weeks back to send the Clippers packing, clinching their first playoff series win since 2010. But now, it is Utah's turn to feel the pain of elimination, as they have been swept out of the playoffs by the Golden State Warriors.

Missing George Hill for three of the four games, and with Rudy Gobert and Derrick Favors not at 100 percent, the Jazz's tough task of trying to upset the Warriors became impossible, as the Dubs cruised to four double-digit victories, capped off by a 121-95 victory in Game 4 on Monday night.

Stephen Curry led the Warriors in the scoring department in the final game, putting up 30 points, while Draymond Green had a triple-double, finishing with 17 points, 10 rebounds and 11 assists.

As for the Jazz, they were led all series long by Gordon Hayward, who did all he could for his team against the loaded Warriors. Now, the Jazz will turn to the future as they face a potentially franchise-altering summer, with Hayward holding a player option for next summer. And should he opt out, there figures to be many a suitors knocking at the door to try and steal him away from the Jazz.
