Warriors rally to avenge Bucks defeat, improve to 26-1

Steph Curry of the Golden State Warriors shoots against Cory Joseph of the Toronto Raptors. Green was clearly disturbed by the mostly verbal run-in, later insisting, “No man is going to touch my head”. Green slapped it away & Khris Middleton then pushed Green.

“They played at a great pace, had great shot selection, Giannis (Antetokounmpo) was killing us on the block and thank God we made the right adjustment in the fourth quarter”, he said. “I’m a grown man”. The Warriors weren’t too pleased with how the Bucks acted while celebrating the win, and many thought Golden State would mercilessly stomp Milwaukee on Friday night at Oracle Arena to get revenge.

Other results from Wednesday saw the San Antonio Spurs set a franchise record for consecutive wins at home with 23 as they beat Washington 114-95, IN thumped Dallas by 26 points, Orlando cruised past Charlotte, Dwayne Wade scored 28 as Miami won their third straight against Brooklyn, and Kevin Durant had 24 to lead the Oklahoma City over Portland for their sixth consecutive win.

The score was tied at 108-108 before Curry scored on a drive with 2:16 to play and added two free throws 20 seconds later.

Oddsmakers from online sports book BetDSI clearly believe the Warriors will fix any issues they had in their first meeting with the Bucks, because Golden State is a 19-point favorite for tonight’s game.

Warriors’ record through 26 games: 25-1. Shooting guard Klay Thompson, who scored 43 points Wednesday in a win over the Phoenix Suns, took a serious tone when revisiting last week’s loss. They will conclude their four-game journey with a game at Phoenix on Sunday.

“We were just taking it all in, enjoying the moment with them”, Green mused. “We’re trying to compete for a championship”.

“We caused our struggles”.

The Bucks have the length to bother the Warriors.

The Warriors cut into a 12-point halftime deficit in the third as the Bucks finally started missing shots.

An alley-oop and a technical free throw would push Milwaukee’s lead to 11 early in the fourth quarter, but then the Warriors began to make their run.

But could the Warriors still win if they used the small-ball lineup all game, we asked Barnes? It was the most points the Warriors had surrendered in any half this season.

The Warriors are smelling blood and already had fiery messages for the Bucks who ended their winning streak.

Carter-Williams, who drew the ire of the Warriors on Saturday with his look toward the bench after a last-minute dunk, tallied 13 points in the first quarter while Curry struggled on defense.

And the Bucks didn’t like the way Green dissed Carter-Williams in a radio interview this week, saying he had no cause to stare down the Warriors bench because the Bucks player had lost his starting spot. Michael Carter-Williams and O.J. “That requires a lot of work in getting back to the fundamentals and basics of game”, Walton said.
