National Basketball Association Capsules: Warriors improve to 10-0

While they may be able to withstand a few errant Bogut behind-the-back passes and Green busted-up lobs against teams like the Nets and the Timberwolves, other opponents will be far less forgiving.

Curry scored 21 of his 34 points after halftime, Iguodala hit a clutch three-pointer and the Warriors survived in overtime, beating the Brooklyn Nets 107-99 on Saturday night.

Hollins said he instructed his players to foul immediately. “We were going to see if it loosened up throughout the day, but it hasn’t”, Walton said. The Nets, who have struggled this year, were energized by former-Warrior Jarrett Jack and Thaddeus Young.

Wiggins missed the game on Tuesday night against Charlotte with a sore right knee and was a game-time decision.

Curry hit 15 of 25 shots, including 8 of 13 3-pointers, in another breathtaking performance.

The Cavaliers had won eight straight since losing their season opener to the Bulls and fought hard to extend their streak to nine against the Bucks, forcing double overtime despite trailing by 11 points at one point in the fourth quarter.

Shooting guard Klay Thompson was out for the Warriors with back stiffness, leaving the Dubs without their best defender.

The Nets still had one final fruitless gasp after Jack’s jumper from the left corner rimmed out with 1.3 seconds left in regulation. Eventually Jarrett Jack realized what was happening and started to move it up court, but by then the referees had called an eight-second violation, giving the ball back to Golden State. “Usually you try to equate that with the shot clock being at 16”. “So when I looked up – and I wasn’t quite sure when I had grabbed the basketball and how much time had elapsed”.

Jack and Young each sank a pair of free throws in the final 30 seconds of regulation to give Brooklyn a three-point edge.

Stephen Curry dribbled across midcourt in the third quarter and went into a trademark crouch as he started to break down Andre Miller.

As was the case last week, Seth and I discussed the late game first because it was a bad game.

It was another frustrating evening for the Houston Rockets as they slipped to 4-6 for the season with a 110-98 defeat to the Dallas Mavericks in the battle of two Texas franchises.

Andre Iguodala makes a strong drive to the basket during the Warrirors’ win. Andrew Bogut also chipped in 10 points, 18 rebounds, four assists, three blocks and two steals.

That was only one of several injuries that had plagued him with the Bucks. He missed the end of the 2009-10 season after dislocating his right elbow, spraining his right wrist, and breaking his right hand in a fall on the floor. With 0.5 seconds remaining in the game, he missed a point-blank tip in on an inbound pass from Joe Johnson, which could have won the game for the Nets.
