Then they lost their starters, he got extra minutes, and boy, has he come through. Nice feet inside. Green with the finish. Draymond greens got 30. Nine rebounds, eight assists. Mark if im steve kerr, im concerned about the warrior team going forth. You have to do a better job on the defensive end. Giving up 111 points to this Portland Team is unacceptable. Still got plenty of time left and im sure thats what steve kerr is going to be talking about, challenging his team. Mike obviously a key concern. The other one is when will steph curry return. Said hell be reevaluated tomorrow, maybe play in game four, nothing definitive. Shock clock at seven. Lillard steps back. Its good. Damian lillard with 37. Mark wow. Mike Draymond Green banks it in. His seventh threepointer. Jeff new rule, that threepointer that banks in is a two. Mark how good is Damian Lillard though. Mike lillard again, bang jeff i dont say this dismissively, but if you traded him and curry, how much difference would we see . This is what we see steph curry doing. Making something out of nothing. The incredible long range shooting off the dribble. Mike now in three games against the warriors in portland, hes had 51, 40, and 40 here tonight. 40 points, ten assists. Eight more three pointers, an electrifying performance from Damian Lillard. Jeff mike, this is against an elite defensive team and an elite defender in Klay Thompson.

A breathtaking shooting performance from these two talented young guards. America, the Sprint Network is now more reliable than ever and im on a mission to prove its the fastest. Im traveling the country betting anyone and everyone that sprint is faster than their network. And guess whos winning . The guy with a trailer full of your stuff. I bet my space suit for that slightly oversized jacket. Come on. Come on. Sprint wins that was fast yeah, sprints killing it. The sprint lte network is now more reliable than ever. Switch to sprint and save 50 on most verizon, at t or tmobile rate plans. If we dont win you over in 30 days, well refund your money. Mark its the dame dollar show, making plays away from the screen and roll, knocks down the shot. Isolate Klay Thompson, step back fadeaway jump shot. Again, away from the pick and roll. Knocking down shots. Bigtime plays all night long for Damian Lillard. Mama, there goes that man. Mike we were talking during the timeout. This threepoint shooting thats going on in the post season, its staggering. Like some of the cleveland shots are good spotup looks. Were talking off the dribble. Mike mccollum rips it down. 22 for mccollum, 40 for the man with the ball. As portlands going to get a win in game three. Lost it out of bounds. A 20second timeout called by terry stotts. The number one question for golden state right now, will he play in game four. Oh, my gosh i. Mike they are loving their blazers here at the moda center, another sellout crowd. Right from the opening tip they have been a raucous crowd, as Damian Lillard and c. J. Mccollum, plus Alfarouq Aminu who is also turning in an impressive performance. Lillard another 40 against golden state, but this time in playoff pressure situation. Team down 02. Much like they did in the first round against the clippers, they were beaten by double figures the first two games. Came back and then won four in a row. They lost by double figures in games one and two against golden state. What a remarkable performance here in game three. Terry stotts putting in his reserves, as barbosa nails that one. This crowd has been delirious. Mike roberts shot wont go. The blazers will be the first team to beat the warriors twice this season, once in the regular season and once here in the playoffs. As barbosa misses. Clark drives. Out to rush. And that will do it. The series is now 21 after a brilliant performance from Damian Lillard and the portland trail blazers. The Youngest Team in the playoffs, a team that many people not only felt wouldnt make the post season here but to have them here in the second round, clearly they had some good fortune with the way it turned out with the clippers. Clippers were shorthanded, good fortune for them obviously. Now here against golden state without steph curry, but they have taken full advantage of their opponents injuries and trail 21. Doris against what has been one of the elite defenses all season long, you just got 40. How did you do it . Just playing hard, understanding the situation that my team was in. If you go down 30, not a lot of teams come back from that, especially against a team as great as this team is. I wanted to come out and be aggressive and just leave it all out here and thats what i did. Doris its not often one supercedes the chief. How about the effort from aminu. From the chief, he was big time all season long. It seems like every time we need a big night from him, he comes through. In the clipper series, he came through big for us. Tonight once again he came through big for us in a must win. We had some games at the end of the season when we were trying to get a playoff spot, he came through big for us. Thats been the story of our team this year, having so many guys step up. He was huge for us. Doris you told us prior to the game youre the second team to first team to beat this team twice. The confidence youve gained moving forward, how do you sustain this . Im a confident person all around. Even when i step away from the game. But our team, i think we match up well with these guys. We can go small. We can score the ball. Its more of a mental thing, you know, staying locked in for the whole game because this team can run off on you with those three pointers. We joust got to play hard and smart and not let them think the game better than we do. Doris thank you. Mike always so poised and calm. Portland remains undefeated at home in the post season. Now 40. Now back in the series trailing two games to one with game four coming up right back here at the moda center. San antonio up 21, as toronto. Cleveland up 30.
