Toronto Raptors 112-117 Golden State Warriors




The Warriors can thank Stephen Curry (30 points) and Kevin Durant (29 points). Like Houston, Golden State has left Toronto back in the last quarter. At -5 two minutes from the end of the match, it was a 10-0 two MVPs, well supported by a finally waterproof defense, which finally gave the victory to the defending champions (117-112).
In a match that saw both teams lose 35 balls, the Raptors, without Jonas Valanciunas, nearly made the hold-up thanks to the 11 offensive rebounds of Jakob Poeltl and the 24 points of DeMar Derozan.
The Warriors then retreat behind 3-point shooting, but success escapes them. Stephen Curry made two bowls and, on the other side, six points in a row by DeMar Derozan gave the Raptors a five-goal lead two minutes from the end of the match (112-107).

While the Oracle swallows hard, two defensive stops allow Stephen Curry, an acrobatic lay-up, and Kevin Durant, thanks to the exact copy of his decisive shoot in Game 3 finals NBA, equalize to 112 everywhere. The Raptors are trying to regain their spirits but the momentum has rocked. In a boiling room where everyone is standing, a new stop is followed by a decisive 3-point shot by Curry on a service from Kevin Durant (115-112). Toronto is KO standing. In less than two minutes, the Dubs finish the match on a 10-0 to avoid a second defeat in as many home games.
