The only 3-point shot Klay Thompson made Sunday night came during a third-quarter surge the Warriors used to beat the Boston Celtics and even the NBA Finals at 1-1.
SAN FRANCISCO — Klay Thompson came whistling down the hallway toward the Warriors’ locker room, striding ahead of coach Steve Kerr and sounding like he didn’t have a care in the world.Well, what mattered most was the Warriors winning 107-88 to even the NBA Finals at 1-1 before flying to Boston for Games 3 and 4.“It was just good for our energy to get him going and see that ball go through the rim,” center Kevon Looney said.
“We feed off it. When Klay hits shots, it gets us going,” Green said. “Good to see him knock that shot down and it started a run for us.” Once Thompson’s 3-pointer fell, he celebrated as loudly as the Chase Center crowd. The Celtics, in turn, called a timeout to try slowing the train that would not stop.
For example, Juan Toscano-Anderson hollered over and over that it was “a great day to be a Warrior!” Then came Curry with four cameras documenting every move and word, about now taking the show on the road. Green followed and told the camera on him how it was “very important not to go on the road down 0-2.”
