It looked as if the Cleveland Cavaliers would head into halftime of Game 5 with a slight lead. Then the Cavs got called for an eight second violation, leaving the Warriors with a final chance to tie or take the lead. Steph Curry went straight to the rack, but missed the lay up.

Luckily for him, Harrison Barnes was there with a thunderous put-back slam, drawing a foul on LeBron James in the process for an and-one opportunity. Just like that, the Warriors lead at the half 51-50.
