The Golden State Warriors (62 - 13) narrowly edged out the Phoenix Suns (38 - 38) on Thursday in a 107 - 106 thriller at the Oracle Arena. It is n't often that Golden State gets tested at home, but a Phoenix team clinging to slim playoff chances gave Golden State all it could handle Thursday. Phoenix trailed for much of the game, but took an 89 - 88 lead with 5:33 to go. A back - and - forth battle ensued with both teams trading haymakers. It looked like Golden State was going to escape after Steph Curry swished a three to take a one - point lead with eight seconds to go, but Eric Bledsoe answered with a crafty move at the basket to give Phoenix the lead. Coming out of a timeout, Golden State called on Harrison Barnes, who delivered the winning basket with under a second remaining. The Suns have now lost five games on buzzer beating shots, but this one may have ended their playoff hopes for good. Phoenix desperately needed a win Thursday, having lost four straight coming into its matchup with Golden State. Every starter scored in double - figures, led by Eric Bledsoe with 18 points. Rookie T.J Warren had a big outing with 17 points off the bench. Despite the solid all - around performances, Phoenix could n't hold on as it suffered another gut - wrenching loss. The Suns will return home to host the Jazz on Saturday. Golden State has the Pacific Division and the West's number one seed locked up, but still played like its season was on the line. The Warriors rallied from a big deficit against the Clippers on Tuesday, and followed it up with another clutch performance. Stephen Curry showed once again why he's an MVP candidate, canning six three - pointers on his way to scoring 28 points. The Warriors were missing Draymond Green again Thursday, which allowed David Lee to make his second straight start. Lee finished with seven points and six rebounds over 21 minutes. Golden State will start a three - game road trip Saturday in Dallas.
