OAKLAND – The gasps became audible on the court, from the bench and near the rafters.
The Warriors lost another All-Star once again with an injury. Klay Thompson clutched his left leg in pain after falling awkwardly on a fouled dunk attempt.
The Warriors expected the crowd at Oracle Arena to be loud for its final home game. But not for this reason. Once again, the Warriors experienced another incident in which they had to thrive through adversity.
This time, the Warriors ran out of bodies. This time, the Warriors could not overcome the obstacles.
The Warriors fell short in a 114-110 loss to the Toronto Raptors in Game 6 of the NBA Finals on Thursday, denying them a chance to extend their dynasty after winning three NBA championships in the past four years.
