The Golden State Warriors came into Sunday night’s Game 2 of the NBA Finals against the Celtics knowing they had to do whatever it take to avoid going down 0-2 in the series.
Apparently that included a half-court shot at the buzzer at the end of the third quarter because that’s exactly what Jordan Poole did for the Warriors as his 39-footer gave Golden State a 23-point lead heading into the fourth quarter.
It also had the Chase Center crowd in San Francisco going nuts. Poole pulled a Steph Curry with this shot and everyone in the building not rooting for the Celtics loved it:
