Game 3 displayed just how vital, and irreplaceable, Kevin Durant is
The Dubs dominant Game 3 victory over the LA Clippers proved how vital, and irreplaceable, Kevin Durant is for the Golden State Warriors.
While it’s still just the first round, Game 3 could go down as the string of moments that helped turn Kevin Durant into the absolute monster that could annihilate the entire NBA postseason.
He went from nine turnovers and eight shots in Game 2 to almost a postseason career high with 38 in Game 3.
It was Patrick Beverley, who almost fouled out of Game 3 as well as fouling out of Game 2, who sparked this fight in Durant. People were crediting Beverley’s debilitating defense with the reason Durant failed to score his typical 20 points in Game 2.
