The Golden State Warriors Game 3 loss to the Toronto Raptors was equal parts understandable and debilitating. On the one hand, they were without Kevin Durant, Klay Thompson, and Kevon Looney - what could you really expect?
On the other hand they got a 47-point performance from Steph Curry, and the stage was set for the type of victory that would stun the basketball world.
But it didn’t happen. Despite Curry’s offensive heroics, the Warriors defense struggled all night long. Kyle Lowry and Danny Green lit the nets on fire.
