The Warriors clinched the game with a pair of Stephen Curry free throws with 6.2 seconds left. Before and after that, the Celtics (30-19) missed their last four shots.
Draymond Green missed what could've been a pair of costly foul shots as the Warriors nursed a 113-111 lead with 8.6 seconds left, but Green grabbed the rebound and tipped the ball to Curry. Before that, Klay Thompson made a pair of foul shots for a 113-111 lead over Celtics with 46.1 seconds left.
The Warriors featured Kevin Durant (33 points), Curry (24), Thompson (21) and DeMarcus Cousins (15) scoring in double figures. And the Warriors were effective at the free-throw line (29 of 34). The Celtics relied on Kyrie Irving (32 points, 10 assists).
