Since it was a near-three-hour-long roller coaster ride, we’re only going to cover the last quarter.
Let us begin with the obligatories:

The Warriors had just burned an eight-point deficit late in the 3rd quarter to three, thanks to a Draymond Green triple, a missed three by the Clippers’ Darren Collison, a foul by DeAndre Jordan on a Stephen Curry dribble penetration, and a missed layup by Jamal Crawford as the 3rd quarter came to a close.
It was 87-84, Clippers, heading into the final frame.
Pfeww that could've gone bad. But we settled the storm. #LetsGoWarriorsLive

Jordan Crawford led the way with an and-one and then a three-pointer, which gave the Warriors a 92-89 lead, just when the Warriors’ offense seemed to hit the doldrums.

Clippers head coach Doc Rivers was forced to call timeout and regroup.
The game is so tight, I can't even breath properly. #NBAPlayoffs #LetsGoWarriorsLive

The Clippers regained the lead and were gaining momentum again. Chris Paul asserted his will and scored a three then a layup, and the Dubs found themselves trading baskets when Jamal Crawford hit another clutch shot from beyond the arc, his 20th, 21st, and 22nd points of the game.
Shortly thereafter, that’s when Andre Iguodala got the banker to go in, to give the Warriors a 107-106 lead with 4:27 remaining.

Out of the timeout, the Warriors got the Clippers to commit a shotclock violation, thanks to this epic swat by Green:
What a swat @Money23Green #dubnation #letsgowarriorslive #BEATLA

And yet, the cards still weren’t in it for the Warriors.
The Clippers thwarted every punch from the Dubs with athleticism and sheer power, trading missed threes by Klay Thompson and Green, missed two’s and missed putbacks by the smaller David Lee, for alley-oops and putback slams by Jordan and Blake Griffin, including a circus-shot and-one.
It was a five-point deficit for the Warriors at 116-111, with just 56.0 seconds to play.
I believe!!#LetsGoWarriorsLive

Torture-ball ensued as Curry tried for a desperation three, fouled by Paul. Green made a three-pointer, Curry made another three-pointer, but the Jordan got another dunk, J.J. Redick hit a clutch jumper and made his free throws, and Paul and Darren Collison made all of their free throws.
It was a valiant effort, but it came up short. Final tally: 126-121, Clippers.
Bye bye! Nice season GS! #DubNation #LetsGoWarriorsLive
