In the fourth quarter of Game 2 of the NBA Finals, the Toronto Raptors changed up their defensive gameplan against the Golden State Warriors.
The Raptors went with a Box-And-1 defense in an attempt to shut down Steph Curry.
Curry was held scoreless over the final 12 minutes and the Warriors were held to just 21 points in the quarter, but Golden State still managed to pull out the thrilling win to even the NBA Finals one game apiece.
Warriors forward Andre Iguodala hit the biggest shot of the night, a 3-pointer to seal the 109-104 win. Iguodala was left open on the wing because Toronto swarmed Curry.
After the game, Curry was asked about his confidence he has in Iguodala and gave a pretty interesting answer.
"The whole fourth quarter, they were playing some janky defense, just trying to send bodies to me everywhere and our whole roster just took advantage of it," Curry told ABC's Doris Burke. "Over the course of the game, it's kind of disrespectful to leave Andre Iguodala open like that with the game on the line. He's made big shots like that before and he got it done tonight."

Curry, Iguodala and the Warriors head home with the NBA Finals tied, but they may be down a few more pieces. Klay Thompson and Kevon Looney both suffered injuries during the course of Game 2, and Kevin Durant still hasn't been cleared.
