The Warriors were off to a rough start, trailing behind the Nets by 15 points at the first quarter.
Â
But the warriors took the stage during the second quarter, taking advantage of free throws to cut down the Nets’ previous lead.
Â
By halftime, the Nets are only up by 2 points, 54-52.
Â
Things got heated up at the second half. Still trailing behind the Nets in the third quarter, the Warriors finally got ahead after a 9-0 run in the fourth quarter, giving them a 3 point lead, 85-88, with still 5 minutes in the clock.
Â
It was the last 9 seconds of the fourth quarter was truly heart-stopping, especially for the warriors. Behind by 3 points, the warriors had no room for a blowout. At 5 seconds, Andre Igoudala sank the basket the warriors were looking for, pushing the game into overtime.
The overtime game was all in for the Golden state warriors. The warriors scored a total of 10 points, while the Nets only scored 2 points to bring the game to an end at 107-99 in favor of the Warriors.
The warriors’ win isn’t the only celebration going on that evening; it was also the celebration of the Filipino heritage night that they were hosting.
