Tonight the Golden State Warriors can make it back to their third consecutive nba final. Game four in the best of 7 series tips off in just under an hour in san antonio. Ktvus joe fonzi is there now and he joins us with a preview of tonights game. Joe . Reporter yeah, by now you know the story lines pretty well. The warriors in uncharted territory as far as thefranchise is concerned. They have a chance tonight to win a 12th game and also make it their Third Straight four game sweep in the postseason this year. After the San Antonio Spurs kind of clinging to desperation tonight, you have to be asking yourself, what does it take to beat these guys . Im going to get out of your way right now and let you watch kevin durant as hes warming up. No, were not really sure what music hes listening to. Klay thompson is out there as well right now. If you think about the three games so far, the warriors overcame the big deficit, had the big comeback in game one. In game two all warriors, vintage warrior basketball. Game three, even on a night when steph curry doesnt have his best game, theres Kevin Durante picking up the slack. The warriors know obviously the odds say, what are the chances of the spurs winning four in a row, much less holding them off now . Pretty slim. But you also cant help noticing the phenomenon here. As you see, these big stars warming up right now, the biggest star the warriors, seth curry was out here a short time ago. The phenomenon weve noticed the last few years in the playoffs is that no matter what the arena and its kind of a demographic thing. If youre maybe a High School Kid and an nba fan, its about lebron james. If youre younger than that, its about steph curry. Well represented by the youngsters in the stand, they all rush down whenever steph comes out to warm up. Back to wrapping things up tonight. The warriors know it wont be easy to win the fourth game on the road. Theyre going to fight. They fought last game. And they know what theyre doing. Pop knows what hes doing. Its not going to be easy, especially trying to get a win here on the home floor. Would it mean anything for you guys to get to the finals at 120 . It would mean so much to get to the finals, period. So many players never have that opportunity and to do it three years in a row is special. You dont take that for granted. We celebrate it accordingly and get back to work. Scout our opponent and be ready for the next series. Its hard not to look forward to a warriors cavs series which in all likelihood is obviously whats going to happen. The warriors have to think about getting Business Done here. They continue to make team history and if it is in fact the warriors and cavs in the finals, which everyone expects it to be, that would be nba history as well. No time in history have the same two teams met for three consecutive years for the championship. First theyve got to take care of business tonight and well see you afterwards later on this evening. Reporting live from san antonio, joe fonzi, back to you guys in the studio. There have been injuries along the way. Is everybody healthy on both rosters . Will leonard be playing tonight for the spurs . Reporter no, hes not playing. Theres still a little bit of buzz about that. The incident with leonard when he came down on leonards ankle. The one thing everybody forgets is leonard sprained that ankle pretty seriously when he stepped on his own teammate, david lee, prior to that. Obviously when you have a weakness with the ankle which he already injured that ankle earlier in the postseason and tweak it a couple of times in addition to that, thats pretty bad. They are talking about that a little bit here. Most of the fans we talked to are kind of resigned to the fact that its been a nice season for the spurs, but they dont expect them to win four in a row. Ones going to be tough. Four in a row is pretty hard to imagine. I dont think anybody can see that happening. Joe fonzi in san antonio tonight. Joe, thank you. History made today in israel. President trump became the first sitting u. S. President to visit one of the holiest sites in the world. Live in san jose where defense lawyers are trying to prevent torres from getting a death sentence. They called the one person to the stand who knows him better than anyone else, his mom. That testimony right after the break. The rebuilding is underway in 20 minutes, our sports director goes oneonone with the new 49ers g. M. John lynch. Hear what lynch is saying about turning the 49ers back into a contender. Were tracking the temperatures out there. Its definitely cooling off along the coast. Its going to cool off this week inland as well. Well lay out the numbers for you. See you back here after the break. Federal funding to elect try if i cow train tracks will be approved. The transportation secretary initially denied the 650 million project because the electrified trucks will eventually be shired by the bullet train. Supporters say it will provide jobs and reduce traffic. Its set to break ground once the funding is approved, senator feinstein tweeted she wanted to share great news about the funding agreement. She said, quote, with the agreement in place cal train can move forward with the electrification project which will ease the commute and create 10,000 jobs.

Defense attorneys for Garcia Torres spent their first day presenting evidence in the penalty phase of his murder trial. Jurors must decide between life in prison without the possibility of parole or a death sentence. Ktvus south bay reporter jesse gary is covering this place. He joins us now from outside the hall of justice in san jose. Jesse, an emotional day in court. Reporter julie, it was. You feel for the parents on both sides of this equation. One set of parents who lost a daughter, then the mother of the convicted who has to testify to try to save her sons life. And you know, defense team really need to hit a home run. So prosecutors are saying theyre going to try to do that by putting the one person on the stand who knows the convicted better than anyone else, his mother. Any time you can put someones mother on the stand to, in effect, plead for their life, its something you need to do. Reporter aided by an interpreter, laura garcia was on the stand for most of the day inside department 40 of the hall of justice. She told jurors since conception, he lived in a violent home environment. Tearfully she testified her ex husband was verbally and physically abusive and that as a toddler he intervened on three occasions to protect his mother. Why are you treating my mom like this, he said as a 5 year old. My mom is still pretty. Why are you hurting her . Defense lawyers pointed to laura spending a harsh days picking strawberries, going home to a drunk abusive husband. Little or no support for the sons, and when it was it was to the fields saturated with pesticides. They say these are mitigating factors they should consider. The morgan hill teen disappeared en route to school and her body has never been found. All of these factors did not zeus his behavior excuse hisbehavior, but may have affected his behavior and thats what the defense wants this jury to cling to, that this was someone that wasnt the average kid growing up, that he had a lot of challenges and the decisions he made later in life were affected by that. Reporter prosecutors countered the father never abused him and was loving towards his children. Other garcia family members came in contact with presumed pesticides but didnt kidnap or kill anyone. Still defense lawyers hope a sliver of lingering doubt may sway the panel of 12 to vote for prison instead of a lethal injection. In a penalty phase in a Death Penalty case they need to take risks at this point. Reporter one of those risks could be recalling prosecution witness hermanleon. He was the lead investigator in the case and last week was found giving false testimony in another murder case. That conviction in that case, that was set aside. Its going to be a new trial. The Defense Attorneys in this case argue had they known about that, that could have changed the way they presented their defense case. The judge will rule on a motion to bring him back to the stand on wednesday. Live outside the hall of justice here in san jose, im jesse gary, ktvu, fox 2 news.
