Mnemonic. They've only won in ONE even-numbered year , 2014. All the other 'ships were in odd-numbered years.
No. If they close out in 5, they'll still be waiting for the victor of a long Clippers-Blazers series. I think Warriors will be fine. They can beat the Rockets, Paul-less Clippers, and Blazers without Curry. He'll be back in time to face the Spurs.
Personally, I don't think he'll be back until Game 5 at home (assuming there is one), but this is encouraging. If they can split the first 4, they should be OK. <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Warriors guard Stephen Curry is starting to feel better and is expected to begin testing his knee on the court next week, a source said.</p>— Marc J.

they dont need curry to beat the Blazers.. I see warriors winning in 6 against the Blazer without Curry. With him they win in 5. He can just rest till the next round against the Spurs.
I definitely him coming back during the next series. Especially to get his feet wet a little again in playoff fashion before facing the spurs/okc
