    Golden State will gladly take the trade-off.

    In their first postseason game in 13 years, the Warriors stunned the top-seeded Mavericks 97-85 Sunday night to steal Game 1 and home-court advantage in their first-round series.

    And they did it behind Baron Davis, who essentially played the second half with one eye on his way to a game-high 33 points, a playoff career-high tying 14 rebounds and eight assists. Davis simply took over in the third quarter after getting poked in his right eye, scoring 19 points on layup after three-pointer after step-back jumper. </div>
