Watch LaMarcus Aldridge throw down on Draymond Green and JaVale McGee early in Game 1
The San Antonio Spurs threw the first punch early in Game 1 of the Western Conference finals against the Golden State Warriors on Sunday, and LaMarcus Aldridge delivered a haymaker late in the first quarter.
Aldridge, who finished the quarter with 12 points on 5-of-7 shooting, finished a fast-break with a thunderous dunk over Draymond Green and JaVale McGee to punctuate a nearly perfect opening for San Antonio.

Aldridge is coming off of a big performance in Game 6 against the Rockets in which he poured in his playoff-high 34 points as the Spurs were without Kawhi Leonard.
The Spurs held the Warriors to just 16 points in the quarter and had more points in the paint (18) than Golden State had in total. The Warriors are heavily favored to win the series, but the Spurs look like they will be fighting every step of the way.
