It doesn’t get anymore crushing than that. The Toronto Raptors were seconds away from an NBA Championship. Now, they’re a full game away, after a crushing last-second loss.
The game started off heavily in the Golden State Warriors favor. With their season on the line, the Warriors turned to their “Hampton’s Five”, Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, Andre Iguodala, Kevin Durant, and Draymond Green. The “Death Lineup” came out on fire, hitting three after three and taking a six-point lead after one.
During the second, the worst part of basketball happened.
