Raptors vs. Warriors: Score, Video Highlights and Recap from November 17
And he result was almost the same, save for overtime, as Golden State beat the Toronto Raptors 115-110.
It’s not known if Klay Thompson will play against Toronto, because of back problems.
Lowry and DeRozan totaled 28 points apiece for the Raptors, who made 30 of 39 foul shots. If not for Curry, Iguodala, and Draymond Green doing what they usually do late in games – willing their team to a win – alongside a little help from the opposition, the Warriors likely would have received their first loss of the year Tuesday. It was also their 25th straight homecourt victory, an ongoing record.
But falling behind appeared to be the Warriors’ trigger.
While the Warriors have the Splash Brothers, Toronto’s backcourt was equally as potent. The Warriors allowed 68 percent shooting in the first quarter to trail by 15.
Bogut in five games has averaged 7.4 points and 9.0 rebounds.
Early foul trouble plagued Andrew Bogut, who picked up three in just nine minutes of play.
“Look, we’re winning. We’re 11-0”, Bogut said.
“It’s nothing bad that Festus did, he did a phenomenal job”, said Walton.
The Warriors had 13 turnovers to 10 assists in the second half. In timeouts, in a very close game, we’re talking about things that we have to clean up. What we need to get to the bottom of is what on Earth Andrew Bogut was doing in celebration.
_The Warriors welcomed back veteran guard Leandro Barbosa, who had missed two games tending to a family matter in his native Brazil, but were without backup point guard Shaun Livingston, who is nursing a left hip flexor strain. The body fails on you once in awhile.
The Golden State Warriors are still being overlooked. But Walton said Speights will still have a prominent role going forward.
“There’s a lot of contact in there”, the coach said.
In a game stalled to a snail’s pace by 54 foul calls and 66 free throws, Casey thought one call and one non-call down the stretch doomed his team.
“We didn’t feel like we played great tonight”. The Warriors will wear “The City” jerseys three times on the road.
“I don’t know if it was a screen or it was two guys getting tangled up”, Casey said. It felt like we stopped making it tough on them.
The Warriors take on the Clippers this Thursday night in Los Angeles. Paul has been in and out of the lineup since suffering the injury on November 4 against Golden State at Oracle. He has missed three of the last five games and in the two games he did play, he shot a combined 6 for 21.
We’ve seen many National Basketball Association teams celebrate their heritage by wearing throwback uniforms, which is always a fun way to bring back classic styles. And by narrow victory I mean the Warriors were a Brook Lopez ten inch tip in away from losing. Only two previous Warriors – C Wilt Chamberlain and SF Rick Barry – accomplished that feat….
