The Spurs Beat The Warriors In Double-OT After An Awful Blunder Left Manu Ginobli WIDE Open To Win The Game

The San Antonio Spurs beat the Golden State Warriors 129-127 in the best game of the NBA Playoffs so far Monday night.

In double overtime, the Spurs were down 127-126 with 3.9 seconds left when Manu Ginobli drilled a WIDE open three-pointer with 1.2 seconds left.

The Warriors just got totally lost when Boris Diaw set a screen for Tony Parker.

On the screen, Jarrett Jack left his man (Diaw) in order to guard Parker. At the same time, Harrison bars stayed with Parker instead of switching onto Diaw. As a result, Kent Bazemore had to rotate down to pick up Diaw, leaving his man (Ginobli).

No one was within 20 feet when the pass was thrown:

Either Jack or Barnes should have picked up Diaw on the screen. That's where the breakdown occurred. It wasn't Bazemore's fault for leaving Ginobli to cover the guy standing all alone under the hoop.
