Bogut revealed to reporters Monday that he's dealing with a case of hay fever, but the center insisted that he'll be ready for Game 1 on Tuesday, Marc Stein of ESPN reports.

Analysis:

The big man does not appear to be concerned about the ailment, quipping that he'll be fine "as long as there's no pollen at Oracle." It doesn't look to be anything for Golden State to worry about, and Bogut's workload should not be impacted. In the Warriors' Western Conference Semifinals series against Memphis, Bogut averaged 4.7 points, 7.8 rebounds and 4.2 fouls in 24.7 minutes per game. He'll likely be tasked with containing Houston's Dwight Howard, who is having an excellent playoffs, averaging 16.6 points, 13.8 rebounds and 3.0 blocks per game.
