2018 NBA Finals: Cavs-Dubs IV - Game 3 2nd Half Open Thread and Discussion


2nd half open thread of Game 3 of the 2018 NBA Finals. As usual, leave a comment below and share your thoughts as it rolls on.

Q4

GSW 110 CLE 102

They did again to Cleveland. Specifically, Kevin Durant did it again to Cleveland. The Cavs started off strong out of the gate and gave the Warriors all kinds of fits. But, Golden State just too good and just too many weapons on the floor. Back to Durant, he hits the same dagger to Cleveland as the shot clock expires to extend the lead for the Warriors 106-100 down the stretch of this quarter. This was an ugly game for the Warriors if you look at it, but a masterful performance from one of the best scorers in the game helped minimize the blemish and the team is now one win away from a third championship in four years. More to come in the full recap.

Q3

GSW 83 CLE 81

Great turnaround from the Warriors this quarter and Kevin Durant is having quite a game. He was completely unguardable throughout the majority this quarter. Not only is he doing it as the scorer that he is, but as a facilitator. He found Draymond Green for easy dunks on two occasions while the Warriors were running the fast break. JaVale McGee also provided a spark for the Warriors to start the quarter. But, the Cavs are still hanging around though. They started to get themselves to the free throw line, which I said they need to do more in during the first half post. Tight game. The 4th quarter is being set up for a strong finish.
