Monday night, with 7:58 left in the second quarter, in the most desperate moment they had faced all year, the Warriors unveiled Lineup No. The Warriors went cold, and when LeBron James slammed a breakaway dunk over Durant, Kerr called timeout with Golden State trailing 41-33. They also stifled Cleveland’s attack, thriving on the uncommon size of Durant, West and Green together.
