Without Steph Curry and Jimmy Butler, the Warriors banked on defense to eke out the win.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Talking to reporters after the game, head coach Steve Kerr made sure to emphasize the morale-boosting nature of the win amidst a season wracked with controversy, tragedy, and mediocrity.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">\u201cFelt like we won the championship,\u201d Kerr said. \u201cJust the emotion of everything over the last two days. Losing three of our guys who were beloved in the locker room. Jimmy\u2019s season-ending injury, Steph being out. Everything has just been tough this last week or ten days, whatever it is since Jimmy\u2019s been out. It felt like a great team win where everybody just fought and competed and stayed with it.
