In garbage time, Spurs make a couple of buckets to reach 100 points.

Cook gets a 3 to go! Just adding insult to injury.

Both teams clear their benches.

TIMEOUT called by the Warriors and this game looks to be done.

Lead now 16 (97-113) for the Warriors with 2 minutes to go!

IGGY for 3!

Spurs not giving up. They get 3 FT's courtesy of Mills but Iggy strikes right back with an alley-oop from Green!

THOMPSON! 🔥🔥🔥🔥

Corner 3! He has 16 points in the fourth, 31 for the game.

KD gets fouled on the fastbreak attempt. He makes both and on the other end Mills drives on Looney and gets it to go.

Green misses a 3 and on the other end Spurs turn it over on an over-ambitious fastbreak attempt.

Manu to Aldridge with the pick-and-roll get one to go.

Flagrant 1 called on Green. Spurs get two free throws and the possession. Bertans makes one of two.

Red-hot Thompson gets a mid-range jumper to go but all attention is on the replay, where Green seems to have made an hostile act on Davis Bertans - elbow to the face.

THOMPSON YET AGAIN!

11 in the 4th!
