You just knew this shot had a chance right when the loose ball bounced to Steph Curry.
These three points are even bigger for the Golden State Warriors than they appear on the surface. The Memphis Grizzlies used suffocating defense and an energized offense to cut a nine-point halftime deficit to 63-62 with 3:55 remaining in the third quarter.
After Steph’s splash though, Golden State enters the final stanza up 76-68 – almost like the dispiriting second half play never happened. Memphis has 12 minutes to save its season. Let’s see if Marc Gasol and company can get it done.
