Thompson scored nine points in a 10-2 run to help extend the lead to 89-63 with 3:08 left in the third before the Warriors settled for a 91-74 lead heading to the fourth. Golden State went nearly 6 1/2 minutes without scoring as the Knicks crept within 95-90, but Barnes broke the drought with a free throw and combined with Curry on back-to-back 3-pointers as New York fell short.
