Kevin Durant Shows Why the Warriors Need Him With Dominant Game 3 Performance

For the second straight year, Game 3 of the NBA Finals will be remembered as the night Kevin Durant sucked all the air out of the Cavaliers' season. Durant went from ultimate luxury to ultimate necessity for Golden State on Wednesday, leading the team to a 110–102 victory over Cleveland in spite of a poor shooting night for the Splash Brothers. LeBron James had his 10th career Finals triple double in the losing effort, and now the Cavs are one loss away from elimination.
