NBA Warriors vs. Timberwolves Picks & Predictions for November 12

So far back, the franchise was in Philadelphia.

History is being made this 2015-16 National Basketball Association (NBA) regular season as the defending champions Golden State Warriors are on a 10-0 start following Thursday’s 129-116 victory over the Minnesota Timberwolves. “That would be nice, but you can’t fast forward to April right now”.

Harrison Barnes added 19 points for Golden State, which won its ninth straight to open the season. Curry’s was 9 of 21 from the field, but only 3 of 10 from outside the arc.

Curry finished the first quarter 6-for-9 from the floor, including 4-for-5 from 3-point range as the Warriors led by 40-27 after the period.

Despite a much better effort, it was still the fourth straight defeat for the reeling Grizzlies. Most players have enough trouble hoisting 27-footers with their normal shooting motion. “Whenever you have a night like that, you’re happy, but as long as we win, that’s what counts. I still believe we can win, and we will down the line if we keep playing this hard”.

Andrew Wiggins led the Timberwolves with 19 points.

San Antonio’s LaMarcus Aldridge scored 23 points in his return to Portland, leading the Spurs to a 113-101 win over the Trail Blazers.

Stephen Curry did it again, scoring 46 points on the night. At this point last season, Thompson had already posted five such games, with one of those being a 41-point outburst in the second game of the year.

HORNETS 95, KNICKS 93: Cody Zeller scored on a layup off an inbounds play with 0.6 seconds left for Charlotte and Kristaps Porzingis’ 3-pointer at the buzzer for NY was ruled too late. Towns posted his sixth double-double, which only four players in the last 30 seasons have achieved in their first eight career games: Shaquille O’Neal, Dikembe Mutombo, and David Robinson. “We haven’t seen great shooters that are ball handlers”, Rivers said.

In the 10 games, the Warriors have scored 1148 points – an average of 115 points/game while Curry, who scored 46 points against the Minnesota Timberwolves at Target Centre on Thursday night is averaging 33.3 points per game and 44% accuracy from three-point shooting.

Grizzlies: Mario Chalmers and James Ennis, acquired in a trade with the Miami Heat on Tuesday, were not available. With 333 points, he’s scored the most in that span of any player since Michael Jordan’s 338 to begin the 1992-93 season.

It hasn’t proven to be a smart move as despite the on-going absence of Steve Kerr from the bench, this Warriors squad has responded in the flawless way by sticking to their basketball and beating what is put in front of them.

“We showed a few character coming out here tonight and just fighting, fighting for this crowd”, Nowitzki said.

Porzingis then hit from 29 feet on the ensuing inbounds play, but officials huddled and ruled that he didn’t get the shot off in time after a video review.

FINAL WORD: “Turnovers absolutely tortured us”.
