Staff Writer Harrison Barnes knocked down a tiebreaking 3-pointer with 0.2 seconds left and the Warriors beat the 76ers, 108-105 on Saturday in a game in Philadelphia. After leading by as many as 24 points and taking a 19-point into the fourth quarter, the Dubs let the team with the worst record in the NBA back into the game. Philadelphia 15-2 run over a 3:04 stretch to tie the game late in the fourth quarter. “The Dubs called timeout to set up their final play of the game,” said Steve Kerr. With 22 seconds on the clock, the possession started with Shaun Livingston bringing up the ball. He handed it off to Stephen Curry near midcourt, and the reigning MVP kept the ball in his hands until a double-team forced the ball out of his hands. Curry found Draymond Green in the middle of the lane, who immediately found Barnes wide open in the corner in front of the 76ers bench. Barnes caught the pass, set his feet and put up the shot and swish. Thompson led the way with 32 points, Curry added 23 and Green (10 points, 13 rebounds, nine assists) came within an assist of a triple-double. Andrew Bogut pulled down 16 boards and Barnes had 11 points, none bigger than his last three.Dubs have dished out at least 30 assists. “That was pretty ugly,” says Kerr. Comments are closed.
