Game review: At the start of the first quarter, the Warriors suffered a double blow. First, guard Brandin Podziemski exited the game after just 44 seconds due to a back injury. Seizing the Warriors' disarray, the Nets launched an offensive frenzy. 'Veteran' Cameron Johnson, D'Angelo Russell and others made consecutive three - pointers from the outside, and the inside attacks of Terence Davis and Nic Claxton were also effective. By 4 minutes and 39 seconds into the quarter, with Claxton's hook shot going in, the home team was already leading 27 - 5 by a wide margin. However, the Warriors didn't panic. Curry drove to the paint and made two consecutive shots to stop the bleeding for the visitors. After that, Gary Payton II also scored twice on drives to the basket. At the end of the first quarter, the Warriors trailed the Nets 15 - 35.

At the beginning of the second quarter, the Warriors' 'long - range shooter' Dario Brizuela made a three - pointer. Then, Jimmy Butler made a dunk on an alley - oop and completed a 2 1. Moses Moody hit a three - pointer, and Gary Payton II made another layup. The Warriors had a small run, and by the middle of the quarter, the point differential had shrunk to single digits. Terence Davis and Keon Johnson's three - pointers tried to counter the Warriors' comeback. But in the late part of the quarter, Curry found his shooting touch and made three consecutive three - pointers, quickly pushing his personal score over 15. Just before halftime, Curry caught the ball with his back to the basket and then hit a super - long three - pointer. The ball made a beautiful arc in the air and went in cleanly. Thanks to this amazing buzzer - beater, at halftime, the Warriors only trailed the Nets 55 - 60 by 5 points.

After the halftime break, the Warriors' offense became more fluent and confident. Curry made a layup to push his personal score over 20. Jimmy Butler also rarely made a three - pointer, and the Warriors took the lead in the score for the first time in this game. In a passive situation, Cameron Johnson and Cam Thomas's baskets stopped the bleeding for the Nets. In addition, role players like Terence Davis and Royce O'Neale also scored continuously, and the home team temporarily regained the upper hand on the court. As the third quarter entered its latter part, the competition between the two sides became more intense. For the Warriors, Jimmy Butler made two free throws after drawing a foul, and Kevon Looney made a put - back. But for the Nets, as Cam Thomas made consecutive free throws and a turnaround jump - shot, at the end of the third quarter, the Nets still led 89 - 86.

In the fourth quarter, the Warriors didn't give the Nets any more chances. After a short stalemate at the beginning of the quarter, they suddenly stepped up their game in the middle of the quarter. Curry assisted Dario Brizuela on a jump - hook, and his own reverse layup after a drive was also a thing of beauty. At this point, the visitors had taken an 8 - point lead. The Nets didn't give up, but unfortunately, in the shoot - out, their firepower couldn't match that of the Warriors. Curry made another three - pointer, pushing his personal score over 30. Then, he made two free throws after drawing a foul, and the Warriors led by 10 points. After that, Curry made another three - pointer and repeated his classic 'good - night' celebration gesture. Cam Thomas made a three - pointer, and the Nets were still chasing. Unfortunately, the miracle didn't happen. Curry made two free throws, completely killing the suspense. Finally, after the full - game, the Warriors completed a 22 - point comeback, defeating the Nets 121 - 119 and securing a three - game winning streak.
