“Night night,” Curry declared as a 3-pointer went through the net in the waning moments.

The Warriors defeated the Mavericks 126-117 to take a 2-0 series lead.

Warriors win Game 2 of the Western Conference Finals behind a 19-point comeback against the Dallas Mavericks.

Curry scored 32 points with six 3-pointers and eight rebounds, Looney added 21 points and 12 rebounds, and the Warriors beat the Mavericks 126-117 on Friday for a 2-0 lead in the Western Conference finals.

Looney was back in the starting lineup for the semifinal clinching Game 6 against Memphis after making all five of his field goals in Game 1. He was one of five players to play in all 82 regular-season games.

“He’s been the rock for us on the inside,” Porter said. “… He cleans up the rebounds when he’s down there working hard.”

The double-double was Looney’s second of his career.

“I just stepped up and made a difference tonight,” Looney said.
