a lot more minutes than steve kerr was going to play him. >> here's what i saw.t the end of the second quarter, first of all, in the first, klay got going. but this team is so different when steph curry makes shots. didn't make a field goal in the first quarter. came out at the end of the second, made three of them. then they figured it out. and the raptors started playing not to lose the game. >> correct. >> as opposed to just playing to win like in game one. and let me say this, too. iguodala, this generation's robert orrie. >> man, that was big. >> playoff basketball, makes big shots. swiss army knife. hats off to that team. i picked them to win this game, i wasn't very confident about it. but championship pedigree, championship dna. a great performance. >> absolutely. and for the golden state warriors, and we're going to give demarcus cousins a lot of credit and rightfully so. iguodala, making the big shot late in the game. doing it with looney and klay leaving the game with injuries. and k.d. not playing. but this game was all about draymond green. he vowed

obviously a lot expectation is he can relieve some of the -- you heard steve kerr say in the open, the physical and emotional pull this run can take. it's been five years for the core. the hope is that it frees up steph's mind. he looked drained a bit, i think it's taken its toll, but when can they be whole again at what's proven tbe really good and formidable raptors teams. >> fans and teammates have been waitshot. kevin durant out for over a month, technically listed as a game time decision steve kerr said, yes, he is a go. can the warriors keep their three-peat alive. does a dynasty come to an end tonight? is this the finale for k.d. as a warrior? if the warriors win, the whole thing, is it possible to win the finals mvp award playing in only three games? >> i would hope he would have a chance to win the mvp. that would mean the warriors would have won game 7. at this point it's kawhi leonard's mvp award to lose and how he's played. we'll see how he responds with that guy back in action. they will be matched up, a defensive presents that k.d. brings to the table as well, something t

he is expected to do 3 on 3 and 5 on 5 work tomorrow and steve kerr will have a better idea then. he said, i cannot say he would play friday. >> so, we will see what happens. klay, we think, pretty sure he is going to be playing in game four. and we will see -- >> he was lobbying fourth tonight. >> if kd comes through the tunnel the place will eru -- th place will erupt, we will steph it up later. i like it better than step it up. we are going to steph it up. it's about time, don't you think? >> yeah. >> that's a bumper sticker. yes. let's start marketing this. anyway, we will have more later on. we will see you later in the news cast. >> sounds good. thank you, larry and mindi. >> i think they both started to market it. a loss tough for dubs >> we are live outside the a are arena. >> reporter: yes, history has shown that usually the plaza is filled with people dancing in to the night andleating. but warriors fans have developed a new move this ending, it's called sad face and kicking it to the car to get home. we have seen loads of people pouring out in oracle, starting with five

steve kerr said he is day to day and his status is still questionable f-r tomorrow's game but. today as you see there taking some shots. at least not during the portion of practice, it was open to the media but he looked to be in good spirits in comfortable on the court and when he spoke to reporters. >>just saw what i have to stop on a dime or make our cuts we know. that's when you feel the most. i can just be out there. even a percent we're still there to be very effective so. we'll do whatever i can to get to 4 under but it's not still be out there trying to i can't help my team win. >>now in steve kerr spoke he gave a little more detail on kevin durant's 3 and didn't practice today, but he is ramping up his exercise routine and his workouts and kerr said he is improving so we won't see him tomorrow but hopefully it in game 4 which would be friday okay soon fingers injuries i think the gate, thanks. controversy over fly. the rainbow flag. >>it leads to a special meeting in dublin and a decision on whether or not upright fly will go up could be made tonight. >>plus cities pay

so confident that they can win still given the situation that they're in we talk to steve kerr aboutday. i think any team that has. >>then through the experiences that we have and as champion shoes. has turned that confidence, you know i think players are naturally pretty at this level. star players like we have that you know they've they've all got confidence, but it what the real confidence is when u've been through everything you've seen everything. you fall on you've lost. he's experienced every high every low. and you and you know what this is about and you you can begin to her reserve experience to remember what's necessary which is really he just keep going back to the basics as part of a part of the reason why we're here. >>and you know of. covers self-confidence is. is is key in terms anybody be a successful what they try to do so. we've all brought that together and and the biggest thing is we understand we bodies brings to the table and how do you know how different we all are. but how much we all love winning and. i can look to my right left see those 2 guys and a lot tea

steve kerr says he could be cleared in the next day or so. klay was held out for game three. he says he's anxious to get back on the court. >> it sucks missing the finals game. this is what we work our whole lives for. at the end of the day i would rather miss one game than the entire series. it wasn't the end of the world. >> it just feels like business as usual, honestly. i hope that doesn't sound arrogant but the benefit of having been through five years of this we have literally seen everything. >> okay. so here is the latest on kevon looney. he was thought to have a broken collarbone but now apparently it may be a rib injury so that means he may return during the series after all. fans are up real early. they are excited for the game tonight. >> right now a bunch of fans are gathering at lake chalet where espn is setting up for "first take." reporter amy hollyfield is live. >> reporter: we have a lot of confidence out here. these fans are excited. they're not worried about all those injuries. they see victory in our future. lots of fun energy out here. our line has gone

regardless of all of these injuries, coach steve kerr says, our team is very adaptable. we have a lot of versatility. it requires bench players be ready to step up like they always are and guys playing hard and playing together. a couple housekeeping items. this is the last season for warriors in oakland before moving to sf. steph curry will wear a special brand of sneakers to thank the 426,000 who live here in oakland and a bay area band will be performing the national anthem. i'm sure you see them on your tv screen. of course we are talking about metallica will be courtside again. tip-off at 6:00. the game is officially sold out. if you go to the third-party websites, they start around the $500, $600 range. we saw some 9900 courtside, 23,000, chump change, right? . >> if you could only stand there a little bit and find a corner to hide in. thanks a lot, bob. >>> talking about the shoes that curry will wear tonight to pay homage to oakland, they gave out a limited number to those who made a difference. >> next time. mike? >> i need tiny ones. high heels. >> slowing ther

steve kerr said k.d. is progressing but it is near impossible to play sunday.ough a light individual workout but did not practice with the team. despite losing game one last night to the raptors, the warriors aren't about to rush k.d. back on to the floor. >> it is not like this is a sore ankle or his knee is sore and can you play through it and this is a -- this is a tricky one. if you reinjure the calf and then that is it and he's done for the series. so when he's ready to play, he'll play and that is our approach. >> some good news for the dubs. iguodala should be ready to go for game two. the mri on his level calf came back clean. he hurt his calf in the final 2:00 of last night's loss to the raptors. it is the same calf injury that forced him to sit out game four of the western conference steve kerr said he said he felt pretty good. mindi bach is in toronto with how the warriors are planning to rebound in game two. >> reporter: better transition doens is key for the warriors in game two of the nba finals. they saw the raptors speed in the film sessions. th

so confident that they can win still given the situation that they're in we talk to steve kerr abouty. i think any team that has. >>then through the experiences that we have and as champion shoes. has turned that confidence, you know i think players are naturally pretty at this level. star players like we have that you know they've they've all got confidence, but it what the real confidence is when you've been through everything you've seen everything. you fall on you've lost. he's experienced every high every low. and you and you know what this is about a new you can begin to her reserve experience to remember what's necessary which is really he just keep going back to the basics as part of a part of the reason why we're here. >>and you know of. covers self-confidence is. is is key in terms anybody be a successful what they try to do so. we've all brought that together and and the biggest thing is we understand we bodies brings to the table and how do you know how different we all are. but how much we all love winning and. i can look to my right my left see those 2 guys and a lot te

steve kerr says he's hopeful than he's been over the last few days that durant could return for game five. >> he'll practice today. and he'll get some extra work in with some of the younger players and gauge it from there. he's doing more today. we'll know more after this. >> the team feels like itself and the rotations are consistent and having him back is the last piece that makes the warriors whole. coming up. you'll hear from the players about their mind set heading into a must win game. with the title on the line. >> we are the only place to watch the warriors in the finals game five tomorrow in toronto. sports anchor and news anchor will be reporting from the arena. coverage begins tomorrow at 4:00. followed by the dubs on 7 pregame show. count down at 5:30. and game five at 6:00 p.m. followed by after the game. with sports director larry beel. >> hundreds of people today challenged themselves in a race that can only be held in san francisco. up next the winners today of an event that entices top professional and amateur triathletes to attempt the impossible. >> with temperatur

thursday night's defeat is first time they lost under steve kerr as coach. >> a second day of rest. a second day of preparation. each warrior's player knows what he needs to do better. green shared a telling yet subtle attitude change he kaussw klay thompson in practice. >> he doesn't just show emotion. you can get a feel for when he's mad. you could just see it when he was walking off the floor. it's a certain bounce that he has. like i said before, you ever to just come play the game. >> reporter: you're going to hear from the two time mvp as to why he like where is the warriors are now. >> basketball fans are making redictions for game two. we went in search of fans but went to new heights at one of the city's most famous landmarks. >> reporter: the warriors left us hanging for game one, we thought we would do the same thing. this is the cn tower. this communications and observation tower is visited by more than one and a half million people each year. before we get inside, look what we found. none other than the larry o brien trophy. is this a prediction of things to come? >> wa

steve kerr on what he hopes to get from that big star on the team for tonight's game . >> i don't wantto put too much of a burden on him. it has been a while. we don't know how it is going to go, how it will look at just his mere presence makes a huge difference for us. we will start him and play him and in short bursts and see how he responds and physically, see if his wind is okay and as the game goes, we will try to figure it out from there. the idea tonight is let's get back to looking more like ourselves and everyone can fit into the roll. everybody can do their thing and we will play better. >> reporter: what kevin durant contributed after his 33 days off will remain to be seen but what will undoubtably happen is what the raptors have been able to do with 2 or 3 dimes on times on steph curry, there were 4 games but and 4 times were only 2 or 3 guys could score. when you have kevin durant on the floor, you can't really do that. that will change how the raptors play and it has to change how the warriors play. the warriors, right now, we have to think about the fact that they have t

grant vicki steve kerr summed it up right there. also a bizarre game k given the fact that kevin durant comes back and then asked to leave again. looks like he won't be back for amy and didn't return to the game who knows for game 6 if. >>they say that the way you got to assume he's done for the series and what and now you have to look at game 6 they he let it out and that's with the inspired everybody to play their hearts out left for the words or so and they're so hurt. >>how do qualify what the last game at oracle and what winning it for cady could give the warriors inhe way of a lift on thursday all its enormous in order to be think about this to the fact that the warriors lost games 3, 4, at oracle already. >>you get another chance, the final chance the last team ever at oracle it is a emotionally the thing is it's going to have to force a game 7 and who knows what could happen in a game 7 right, but it would be back in toronto. all right we against the war is up or how fun is it to see them just exhilarated just this roller co

steve kerr says that could happen in the next day or so. klay strained his hamstring. he is anxious to get back on the court. >> it just sucks missing a finals game. it's the nba finals. this is what we work our whole lives for. at the end of the day i would rather miss one game than an entire series. it wasn't the end of the world. i can't wait to get out here tomorrow. >> it just feels like business as usual, honestly. i hope that doesn't sound arrogant, but the benefit of having been through five years of this we have literally seen everything. >> meanwhile, kevon looney was thought to have a broken collarbone. now we're hearing it may be a rib injury so he may return during the series after all. >>> mayor libby schaaf has donated one ticket for auction. the winning person will sit with the mayor in box seats. the ticket includes pregame courtside access during player warm-ups. the auction closes at noon and we have a link forbidde ebidder. abc news is the only place to watch the warriors in the nba finals. game four is tonight in oakland. our coverage begins at 4:0

. >> i'm sure steve kerr would write on the board, please blow this team out. the problem for the dubs, their two wins have been nail biters down to the wire and really close calls. i mean, in the last game, steph and klay needed to combine for all the threes. 20 threes made by the dubs. that's not the routine performance. >> the hope that they will freeway offensive energy that the building will feed off of. with some explosion. most notably rebounding more than five times. in the playoffs. it is the defense that they need to feed off the energy of the building. to put them in an uncomfortable position. each and every possession. this is it. there's no holding back. let's give all that energy on the defensive end to the warriors where they need it the most. >> we saw the great effort where they combine for nine straight points down the stretch to literally steal that game up in tron. >> i think it is 60 or 65. if you're toronto, it will be malpractice to allow both brothers to go off. the splash brothers to go off. because you have to take one of them out. and

as for dub nation, this is only the seconds game one playoff loss in the steve kerr era and kevin durant to save the day in game tw. k.d. will not play sunday. this is video of off durant in toronto. he's still rehabbing his right calf he hurt against the rockets on may 8th. he did not pract ws the team. >> this is a tricky one. if you reinjure the calf, then he's done for the series. so when he's ready to play, he'll play. that's our aprech and i'm just not going to answer any questions of do we miss him against this or that team because it's just a sound bite and the only thing that matters is we have to win the game with what we have and then when he comes back, we'll put him out there. nothing else matters. >> game two is sunday afternoon. can be seen right here on abc 7. our pregame coverage starts at 4:00 and stay tuned for after the game with larry, carry odaunl and mindy. the a's are trying to close the gap in the west, taking on first place houston. the a's came in winners 10 of their last 12. these guys enjoying a night out at the coliseum. his 15th homer of the year and 15th i

for head coach steve kerr, the mvp, his whole team. >> i'm mostly just proud to watch our guys compete and, you know, so short handed already and then to see klay go down and to see everybody fight and scrap and claw and try everything to keep the season going, they're amazing. >> the add mersity we've dealt with this entire playoff run. it's a one possession game. thinking about this one, it's tough. >> i heard a lot of that noise, stand, run, all that jazz. i don't see it happening, though. we'll be back. >> they'll be back. i'm not sure who's going to be healthy enough to be back next season. mindy bach did a great job covering the warriors. >> the road team within the last five games in this series. that's unheard of. with all the injuries, we just saw stephan hansen leave. he was with his family taking pictures. he's limping because he also took a knee in the quad. i think the one thing about this series, the warriors knew that they had so many challenges to overcome, yet it was a one-point game with 18.5 seconds left. they were still in it but they didn't have enough to finish. t

that was the speculation that maybe kevin durant was getting in some work and steve kerr was asked about in his pregame press conference. can you clarify what was taking place between 3:30 and 4:00 behind the black curtain? no. he did give the update on kd. >> they were hoping he could play game five or six and everything in between. i decided, i'm not sharing. it's just gone haywire. it doesn't make sense to talk about it. he will either play or not and tonight he's not playing. >> reporter: so no k.d. tonight. the warriors get klay thompson back. they also get kevon lookey. he was thought to be rest for the rest of the nba finals when he went down with a cartilage strain. right under his clavicle. he was in a lot of pain. the doctors determined that he will not further injure himself if he does play as long as he can handle the painful so he was questionable. and then he said, they will get more defensive help for klay thompson against the very talented toronto team. and i'm watching steph curry warm up. i tell you, he has that killer look in his eyes. he is so focused, locked in. i th

even steve kerr and i threw a zone out of a zone after three possessions after a timeout that was successfuldifference tonight. obviously if klay stays healthy and it's a one or two-possession game. those three stops kind of threw the raptors off. >> kd is able to not allow a team to do that. >> yeah. we're going to play more defense during the break. we might actually be in this shot. we're just having fun, trying to laugh a little bit after the disappointment of the warriors four-point loss. they missed nine free throws in this game. they missed nine free throws. so important in a closeout game. smile. we're coming right back. i've been waiting my whole life for this. ♪ you ready? are you? ♪ woo. ♪ >>> steph curry continuing to talk with family and friends. he was taking a selfie earlier. if i was as big as steph, i wouldn't even take my own selfies. i'd just have someone else do it for me. anyway, he's just mingling with everybody here. he's had a lot of great moments in this building. i'm sure from the family perspective it's hard to leave especially when you come up a little bit short i

let's hear from steve kerr and then our very own jason do moss with a question for draymond green.epared for everything you have to learn from your mistakes if you keep fighting and it's actually pretty simple. now the execution of is not simple but when you watch it on tape. ok is what we have to do and then we are we good enough to do it and that's that's what makes it fun, you get to test or so the reaction it seems like most people back in the states or even for you guys to lose and that obviously here in canada. you have a whole countries probably pulling for rappers you guys feel that you guys are kind of the enemy of the series in people want to see you get knocked off the top. so people in the states are room against be dollar teams. you know we. you're at the top no was ever to you stay there. you know people want to see you get to the top and they want the fall has is kind of a mine of. most human beings so sought put it. team sitting at home with them. >>drake now here's a look at the series schedule game 2 sunday night back at the scotiabank arena than the series comes
