The Warriors edged out the Suns 107-106 last night thanks to two big shots at the end of the game from Steph Curry and Harrison Barnes. The Warriors had the ball, trailing by two with about 25 seconds left in the game and Curry got the wild sequence rolling with a little driving floater. He missed, but Adrew Bogut got the rebound and missed the put back. Then Barnes tapped the loose ball back out and the Suns seemed to corral it, only to lose it again. Barnes got it and missed, but Bogut was there. He controlled the ball, found Klay Thompson and Klay found Curry. After about 20 seconds of that nonsense, Steph buried the three and gave the Warriors a 105-104 lead.

Here's the whole sequence:Golden State fans went nuts, especially this little girl in a Draymond Green jersey. I don't like to shame kids very often, but look at this smirking jester in the Notre Dame shirt behind her. Lighten up, brahski. Girl's having fun at a basketball game, you should try it.
Eric Bledsoe came right back for the Suns and slashed to the rim to take back the lead with four seconds left, but after a timeout, Harrison Barnes worked his way into the middle of the paint and got up a last-tenth-of-a-second shot to put Golden State ahead for good.[TNT]
