Golden State Wariors Champion 2018 (GSW)

BIZARRE TWIST
The game featured 17 ties and 16 lead changes, including the exciting yet bizarre end to regulation. After Stephen Curry converted a three-point play to give the Dubs a one-point lead with 23.5 seconds left, the Dubs were a defensive stop away from taking a 1-0 series lead. But the Warriors committed a foul in the final seconds, sending Cleveland's George Hill to the free throw line.

But the Warriors committed a foul in the final seconds, sending Cleveland's George Hill to the free throw line.
Hill knocked down his first free throw to tie the game at 107-107, but missed the second. Cleveland’s J.R. Smith grabbed the offensive rebound and dribbled away from the basket and the Dubs’ defense, running out the clock instead of trying to make a game-winning shot.
That miscue was a big break for the Dubs, who quickly took advantage with a dominant 17-7 run in overtime. Durant gave the Dubs the lead for good with a pair of free throws a minute into the extra period, and Thompson followed with the first of his two 3-pointers in overtime. Livingston had a pair of baskets to extend the Dubs’ overtime run to 9-0 before Green ultimately delivered the knockout blow with his second trey of the game.
