This game was there for the taking, but an ice-cold fourth quarter cost the Golden State Warriors in their 104-95 loss to the Indiana Pacers.
The Dubs led 90-88 with 5:05 remaining but were outscored 16-5 the rest of the way. The Pacers followed the blueprint from the Warriors’ recent opponents and paid extra attention to Stephen Curry.
Indiana mixed up their man-to-man defense with a box-and-one that didn’t allow Curry to get going.
Golden State finished its seven-game homestand with a 4-3 record. Here are three takeaways from the loss.
