Oh Yeah, the Golden State Warriors found a way to finish off the Toronto Raptors after being down by as many as 27pts. I didn't see the full game, tuning out and writing it off as a loss after seeing how out of synch and out-hustled the Warriors were early. The Raptors were hitting shots like it was their home court. It wasn't.
Down by 17pts at the half, they say newly signed veteran Jermaine O'neal delivered a locker room speech that was "Hunter Pence-esque," igniting a hunger in every Warriors present. They came out, watched the Raptors continue their shooting clinic through most of the third quarter, then began a hunting clinic of their own on both offense and defense. The fourth quarter saw the Warriors outscore the Raptors 45-15 in a historic comeback win. The entire team was in a zone.
Oh Yeah, these are not those same old Warriors of post Curry and Klay years. These Warriors bring a brotherhood to their game that says "This is where we fight. No Retreat, No Surrender." Its gonna be a helluva a season with them laying down Spartan law and pulling out games like these. Be ready coz We Ready!
Final Score
Raptors 103
Warriors 112
Can't Be Touched
