Golden State entered halftime down 11 and reportedly had Draymond Green going on a ‘profanity-laced tirade’ in the locker room, according to ABC’s Lisa Salters. After fighting their way back in the game, the Warriors tied it with 0.6 seconds left on two Andre Iguodala free throws, which followed a hectic 14-second sequence.
Golden State improved to 53–5 and became the fastest team in NBA history to clinch a playoff spot.
