When you talked about how he was going to take personal responsibility on C aacm toe, make sure that he didn't kind of blow up like he did in Game one.

Can you talk about the job that you did on tonight?

And I use able to slow him down?

I just try to be more aggressive, and I wanted to set a tone on him and do not let him get in the rhythm early on saying that No, I didn't box and want him chase him around for like like Richard Sherman does.

Some guys like you know, that's a complete team effort.

I try to do my job.

When I was on him on, everybody else stepped in and did their jobs.

Well, I think getting back in transition was huge but overall way through several different bodies at home.

So I can just come up here and be like, Yeah, I took him out to gain like that's That's garbage.

That was a complete team effort.

Rush over here and left a rash mundane with sports in a dream one over here.

Step scored 12 points last four minutes of the half.

You guys get it within five at the break.

Then you go on that terror.

How What happened in that sequence of time?

In that five minutes before and five minutes after the half that allowed you guys Teoh takeover.

We got stops.

We took away their transition because and we got transition buckets.

You know, we always say we're at our best when we're getting that's our best offense, and we're gonna stops and we're pushing the ball.

Obviously, stuff was great, you know, closing out that that have force.

And, you know, I think we should have been down by a lot more than five points.

But when you're going in, you know, into the half down five we know we can cover that and 10 seconds eso our minds.

That was a great coming out the half.

And, you know, DaMarcus was big to start the half, and and everybody was just moving without the ball and we push the ball in transition.

It was big for us staring in the back, right?

Draymond Dan Devine from the ringer picking up on that point on DaMarcus I'm wondering, you know, when you found out he was gonna be starting tonight.

You know, what were you thinking about how that might change the way you guys were able to move on offense.

And then what did you see from him?

As the game progressed, it seemed like he sort of got got into a rhythm.

Got going as the game went along.

Hey, did you know that once once again, you know, DaMarcus hasn't played much basketball over the course of last 18 months, you know?

So the more he plays, the better field he gets tonight.

He was huge for us.

No, coach, uh, you know, putting him in a star lineup, I think was big, You know, obviously they want attacked him on the defensive end.

But you watched the film.

Uh, hey.

Didn't give up much on the defensive end in game one and similar to tonight.

It was great on both ends as well.

So, you know, and allowed us to play through him.

Some of the posts, you know, they got under that.

Oh, are we know what he's capable of if they don't mark right here in the front.

Dream on Mark Schwarz, ESPN.

Steph after the game said it was disrespectful of the Raptors to leave Andre wide open for that shot, given his his pedigree.

What did you think of that last possession?

The way Andre shot the ball with that much time left on the clock and the fact that raptors didn't get a foul?

Uh, I didn't think they were going to file.

Um, you know, they were trying to get a still travel staff stuff.

I left the bottle.

Me, they came with a trap.

But I think as biggest Andre shot Waas, we've come to expect Andre to hit big shots.

You know, since he's been here, I've seen him, his several game winners.

I've seen him, you know, put the icing on the cake of several wins.

But the way Shawn Livingston met that passed.

I think no one will write about that way.

All got a joke amongst us of bad receivers and good receivers.

I always call Kevin or bad receiver.

Always call Sean about receiver.

He turned in the magnetron tonight for the past.

It was big force.

Okay, next question.

Draymond 10 Isa Maggie, Eagle News, Philippines.

What would be the warriors next game plan to avoid some of the mistakes that were made on defense and offense.

I mean, you always want to make mistakes.

That's just the nature of the game we play you're planning against, you know, a great team there in N b, A finals, for reason.

They're going to force you to make some mistakes.

But it's about the effort that should put out there on the floor to overcome those mistakes.

And, you know, I think we did that tonight.

Uh, you're never going to play a mistake for game.

None of us are expecting that.

But you try to minimize the mistakes and take advantage of the opposite team.

Mistakes Dan on your right.

Opposing team mistakes.

That was bad.

Dan Feldman, NBC Sports.

You took a lot of personal responsibility after Game one.

I think we could see early in the game.

You stepping up near half time guys were still down.

10.

What's going through your mind at that point?

You know, Father, uh, near half?

Yeah, when they got to 10.

What's going through your mind at that point, you're trying to do even more.

Do you Just figure if you keep this up, it'll he'll turn around.

I thought if we kept it out, we would turn around.

You know, when they went on their run, I think they went up 12.

We had three or four possessions where we got great shots and we just missed him.

You know, I have faith in our team if we continue to get, you know, we always talk about just getting a shot every time we're good enough to wear.

If we get a shot every time, we're going to give ourselves a chance to win.

So, you know, we weren't turn the ball over is getting good shots, and And you live with those results.

Obviously, we got a, you know, good swing there to close out the half and, uh, you know, the third quarter, You know, we really dominated that quarter in a game like this where you have so many opportunities guard so many different types of players.

How much do you enjoy that challenge?

I enjoy it a lot, you know, from no garden wise, different in Garden Pascal and garden Pascal is different and gone.

Carl.

Larry.

Uh, but, you know, as a defender, a zika better.

I rather shows opportunities out of to make an impact on the game on the defense side of basketball.

You know, I understand how important that side of basketball is, and, you know, no matter who I'm on, I try toe, you know, make sure I have a big impact on that side.
