Steve Kerr shoulders blame for Warriors’ upset loss to shorthanded Pacers at home

Despite being down Domantas Sabonis, Myles Turner, Malcolm Brogdon and Caris LeVert on the second leg of a road back-to-back, the underdog Indiana Pacers showed up to play against the Golden State Warriors at Chase Center on Thursday night.

After falling down by eight at halftime, the Pacers fought back into the game in the second half. Chris Duarte and Keifer Sykes pushed the Pacers to tie the game before the start of the fourth quarter.

In the final frame of regulation, fireworks from Steph Curry gave the Warriors a three-point advantage with under 10 seconds remaining in the contest. With the lead on the final possession, Steve Kerr’s squad made the decision not to foul, giving Indiana the chance to launch a triple before the final buzzer.
