It's not, as Flaco said, a gimmick. If I'm not mistaken, that three-point line is painted on every floor in the NBA. It's there if you want to use it. What it is, is a
tactic.
A tactic that served the Warriors awfully well this postseason. They did, after all, shoot their way to the biggest upset in NBA history and take down a 67-win monster.
For this series, you can look to Game Two as the decider. They didn't lose it from the three-point line. They lost it by missing free throws and turning over the ball in the last minute. If they win that game like they are supposed to, it's now 3-2 and heading back to Oakland after the understandable bad offensive game.
Golden State is legitimate. They were beaten tonight, and that's fine. But they are legitimate. After all, the better team always wins the seven-game series, right?
