Another big second-half comeback gives Warriors 3-0 lead in NBA West finals over Portland Globe_Sports
“I don’t even know what to say about Draymond,” Kerr said. “He was a wrecking ball, destroying everything in his path.”
CJ McCollum had 23 points for the Trail Blazers, who led by 18 during the second quarter. Damian Lillard added 19 points, but Portland was hurt at the line, making just 20 of 33 attempts. Game 3 was the first conference finals game in Portland since 2000. The Blazers lost that series to the eventual champion Los Angeles Lakers in seven games.
On Thursday, the Blazers were up 15 at halftime and led by eight with 4.5 minutes left before the Warriors rallied — boosted by Kevon Looney’s dunk with less than a minute left, and a game-sealing steal from Iguodala — for a 114-111 Game 2 victory.Both teams switched up their lineups for Game 3, with Portland’s Meyers Leonard making his first start of the playoffs at centre.
