SALT LAKE CITY — The Splash Brothers — Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson — provided the fast start, and the Golden State Warriors made it a quick finish to the second round.

They're four wins from another NBA Finals appearance, and so far nobody can slow them down.

Curry scored 30 points, Thompson 21, and the Warriors completed a sweep of the Utah Jazz in their second round NBA playoff series with a 121-95 victory Monday night.

"We have a lot of talent," Curry said. "We never know who is going to have a hot night.

"We try to move the ball, use each other to create open shots and when we do that, the ball is hopping and a lot of good things happen."The defending Western Conference champions have won both their series in four games and now await the winner of the Rockets-Spurs series that is tied at 2-2.

The Warriors kept pace with defending champion Cleveland in what has appeared like an inevitable third straight NBA Finals matchup. Both teams are 8-0 thus far.

"Steph was Steph and we fed off him," Warriors interim head coach Mike Brown said.

Brown said before the game he hoped his team would get out to a fast start and the Warriors did exactly that. Golden State led 39-17 at the end of the first quarter after an onslaught from Thompson and Curry. They combined to shoot 6 for 8 in the opening period.

Thompson finished with 21, Kevin Durant scored 18 and Draymond Green posted his third career postseason triple-double with 17 points, 10 rebounds and 11 assists.

Gordon Hayward led the Jazz with 25 points and Shelvin Mack chipped in 18.

"The most important thing was we imposed our will on the game and we had the game at our pace," Green said.
