OAKLAND — The Warriors fought to the end.
Man, did they fight.
They showed unspeakable tenacity, steely resolve, and an unquantifiable amount of heart.
But they didn’t have enough soldiers to win the war.
Stephen Curry had a chance to win it — a clean-as-you-could-expect look at the rim from behind the 3-point arc, but his shot in the final seconds clanked off the front of the rim. The Warriors had a chance to get the rebound — they scrambled on the floor, finally getting to the ball with 0.9 seconds remaining. But at that point, there was nothing more that could be done — the Raptors claimed a wild and emotional Game 6 Thursday, 114-110, to claim the franchise’s first-ever NBA title.
