In-game fan misery, every 15 minutes.
What happened
Three games, three wins, and a fanbase already doing arithmetic it will regret. The Warriors went down 127-105, which was enough for someone to declare "WERE SO FUCKING BACK 82-0 HERE WE GOOOO." The turn came Friday against the Clippers, 125-117, a comeback that left "the haters are in shambles" and birthed the phrase "Undefeated in the Walker Kessler era." Then Luka dropped fifty in Utah, 132-123. Austin Reaves got his flowers. At 3-0, the only threat left is October ending.
