For the second-straight year, Game 3 of the NBA Finals was the Kevin Durant show.

Last year's NBA Finals MVP finished with a playoff career-high 43 points and he hit a dagger three Wednesday night that looked awfully familiar to Game 3 last year.

Same spot, same result, and for the second season in a row, the Warriors will head into Game 4 up 3-0 in the NBA Finals thanks to Durant's heroics.

Same spot. Same 3. Same Game 3. #Durant

For the 2nd season in a row, Kevin Durant ends the season from the exact same spot.

Bravo, man. Bravo.

Wow, what can you say? Durant with an all-time, gutsy game. Single handedly saved this. Same shot, same spot. Cold blooded. Savage. There aren't many more words.
