I appreciate the math lesson but, keeping it simple, the Warriors hadAnother side note - Curry was 3-11 on three-point shots.
That was the difference right there. 5-11 and we'd be going to game 7.
Well a lot of things went into it. If Curry goes 5-11 and Klay/Iggy go 5-12 instead of 7-12 the Warriors still lose.

the inbound down by only 1 with 9 seconds left.
This could have gone either way .
Yeah it could have. I really thought GS had a good shot at still pulling off the season. Now have Klay with a torn ACL likely a year out as a free agent. And Durant, where if he uses his player option... well that's up to a year of rehab to hit FA. And the Cousins injury. Just a bad situation all around for all of them and the Warriors. Two major leg injuries to two elite guys in their 30's both with max deals potentially on the line. Honestly, that's a tough decision for a GM. On one hand you lose both the chances of getting that team back to greatness fall off a lot. But you get them deals, and the dice tip to where neither are elite again, and you've just handcuffed Steph's prime to guys you can't move on from.
Tough to find a dynasty's outlook potentially change so much in a couple weeks with that many major injuries.
