Cleveland went nuts against Atlanta earlier and has been shooting the 3 pretty well all playoffs (particularly their backup center). Now Thompson goes off for 11 threes, and it seems to me he hit the last 6-7 in a row. Some incredible quick, turnaround shots over defenders. When the Warriors start draining threes, it's over. They hit 21 3-pointers to OKC's 3 3-pointers. I love Durant, but he played hero ball at the start and fell apart in this game. He has to let Westbrook lead down the stretch.
 
Durant was awful down the stretch, but Westbrook had 4 turnovers in the last 90 seconds of the game. It sure seemed like they panicked at the end of the game.

A few interesting stats:

OKC had 13 offensive plays in the final 5:00 last night. They passed the ball 1 or fewer times on 12 of them.

Thunder went up 96-89 with five to go.
Then: 2/4 at the line;
Durant 0/3, two turnovers;
Westbrook 0/1, four turnovers
