Warriors Beat Grizz; Tie Franchise-Best Start

Stephen Curry has another phenomenal performance by scoring 46 points while sinking a total of 8 3-point shots. For comparison’s sake, the Wolves were 3-9 and have 43 attempts from deep over the past three games.

The Clippers, who played without injured backcourt starters Chris Paul and J.J. Redick, lost forward Blake Griffin when he was ejected with 2:36 remaining in the second quarter after receiving his second technical foul. Nobody would have scoffed or blamed them for throwing in the towel at that point. That, combined with arguably one of the best home advantages at Oracle Arena, nicknamed “Roar-acle”, has the Warriors on their way to back-to-back championships, a rare feat in the modern sports era. “When the team fights, anything is possible”. Guard Andre Miller, seeing his first extended action of the season, had 11 points and four assists. 500 for the first time.

If Curry continues to have season’s like he did in 2013-2014-which is looking likely given the way he is now playing-I think he will be a future Hall of Famer and will definitely be considered one of the best to ever play the game. I thought we believed we could win.

Despite falling 92-91 to the Heat on Thursday, Utah (4-4) verified something everyone was already kind of thinking – that they’re going to be a good team very soon. “Obviously there’s things you can improve on”. According to NBA.com, they’ve outscored the opposition by 153 points in Curry’s 353 minutes, and by just 18 points in the 137 minutes he’s spent on the pine. The Timberwolves had most of their scoring come from their two future stars – Andrew Wiggins and Karl Anthony Towns. We had random, weird lineups going on out there. Curry put up 31 points in the win and reminded basketball aficionados all over the country that the MVP has gotten even better in the off-season.

Casual reminder that this is coming fresh off of a Wednesday night game in which they almost beat the Grizzlies by 20, and played bad offense by their own standards.

“We made a few adjustments to our game and it was working tremendously”. It got us back in the game. “That’s a testament to our coach and coaching staff”.

On Wednesday, November 4, Curry led the Golden State Warriors to a 112-108 victory over their rival team, the Los Angeles Clippers. The saddest part of Rubio being inactive is that the national audience (TNT) didn’t get to see how vital he is to the Wolves, on both ends of the floor.

With Minnesota getting back into the game, Curry entered and scored 10 more in the third, including back-to-back threes as Golden State pushed their lead to its largest of the night at 21 points. The only major roster move they made was releasing veteran forward David Lee, which cleared over $10 million in salary cap space.

With the MVP on the bench, Minnesota pulled as close as 48-42 midway through the second but trailed 75-63 at the half.

Minnesota is 0-5 SU in its last 5 games when playing Golden State.
