Wow, what a comeback win! The Golden State Warriors were flat early. They struggled through the middle, then turned up their offense and defense late in the fourth quarter. Finally, in overtime, they put to bed what many consider one of the best teams in the league. 

Coach Kerr, forced to play his young players, and those guys stepped up and played like veterans. At times the Boston Celtics looked unstoppable early in the game. But down the stretch they struggled to score, looking pedestrian. 

Young Warriors player Trayce Jackson-Davis had a coming out party, and may have beern second best player of the game for the Warriors right behind Steph Curry. Trayce (TJD) came into the game and the Warriors instantly looked better. TJD had 10 points and 13 rebounds for the game, his first double-double game in his young NBA Career.

The clutch shot of the game came from who else but Steph Curry, playing with five fouls. Up one with under 15 seconds left in OT with the shot clock winding down, Chris Paul found Curry with a cross-court pass and "The Chef" smoked a high-arching 3-point shot just over the reach of a closing Celtics defender; Nothing But Net. It was a Night-Night moment and Curry performed his dagger pose while running back down the court. Then pointed to announcer Reggie Miller's young son, who was at the game dressed in a Curry #30 jersey. The two were also shown together during Warriors warmups. Sorry Reggie, you old and outdated... 

The Celtics were left looking like a child shaken awake from a recurring nightmare. If they're still wondering what happened for them to lose a game they mostly led, it's simple; they got bamboozled by a Golden State Warriors team who are rediscovering their championship medal. Gold Blooded Baby!!!
