The Golden State Warriors did what they needed to do when they came back home.
The Sacramento Kings put them against the ropes in the first two games of the series, with the Dubs falling to a 0-2 hole for the first time in the Stephen Curry era.
Needless to say, that prompted plenty of takes about the end of the dynasty and how the Warriors weren’t going to be able to come back from this, especially upon Draymond Green’s suspension.
That’s why Curry kept notes and wanted to put the world out there that the reigning champions aren’t done, citing that they also have a history of proving themselves over and over.
“They say Draymond’s got a history, so do we.”

The Warriors were severely undermanned, as they also lacked arguably their best perimeter defender in Gary Payton II, who was out with an illness.
Even so, they rallied behind Kevon Looney’s outstanding effort on both ends of the glass, with Curry chipping in with his usual offensive explosions.
The Dubs will get Draymond and hopefully Payton back for Game 4 on Sunday with a chance to even things up at two wins apiece.
This series was never supposed to be easy, and they knew it.
But if there’s a thing that has proven to be resilient and dynamic enough to always fight its way back from an unfavorable situation, that’s the Warriors.
So, yeah, you better think twice before you rule them out.
How many times do they need to prove themselves to the doubters?
