Dubs Weather Early Storm
The Warriors quickly found themselves in an 8-0 hole within the game's first three minutes. After a Steve Kerr timeout, Stephen Curry got the Warriors on the board with a 6-0 run of his own. Game 6 Klay Thompson joined the party with seven points in the opening quarter and a Donte DiVincenzo corner splash gave the Dubs a two-point lead after one. The Warriors were also engaged defensively to open the game, getting six steals and forcing eight Kings turnovers in the first quarter.

Shooting Struggles
The Warriors shot just 37.6 percent from the field (32-85) and 10-32 from 3-point range. Klay Thompson (2 3PM) was the only Warrior besides Stephen Curry (5 3PM) to make multiple threes, and the Warriors also missed 10 of their 35 free throws (71.4 percent). The Kings didn't shoot it much better, making 40.4 percent of their shots, but they did make seven more triples than the Warriors and eight more field goals.

Curry Fourth Quarter Flurry
Stephen Curry tried to bring the Warriors back into the game in the final period, scoring 11 of the Warriors' first 12 points in the fourth quarter. First, Curry took a dribble handoff from Draymond Green and splashed in a 3-pointer. Then, he used a Moses Moody screen and finished with a left-handed layup. Curry gave the Kings a bit of everything in his bag, hitting a side-step 3-pointer from the right wing, a step-back jumper from the left wing and capped off his early fourth-quarter flurry with a free throw. Curry finished with a game-high 29 points and passed Hakeem Olajuwon for 14th on the all-time playoff scoring list.
