Stephen Curry’s 15 most mesmerizing shots from the Warriors’ red-hot start
Curry, who added 25 points on 10-for-14 shooting to go along with seven assists, remembered how the Bucks celebrated their win as well. Phoenix shot 45.1 percent overall but just 22.7 percent on 3-pointers, missing 17 of 22.NOTES: The home game was the Warriors’ first since November 27, an 18-day span that was the club’s longest since moving west in 1962….
Though the Warriors held a 13-point lead at the half, Thompson’s torrid third quarter helped push the lead to 40.
After a season-long seven-game road trip that took them to three different time zones and two different countries over 13 days, if you think the Warriors are glad to be back in the Bay Area, just wait until you hear the crowd welcome them home this week. We’re now nearly a third of the way through the National Basketball Association season, and few power forwards have put together the kind of resume Green has up to this point.
Kelly Olynyk scored 28 points for Boston, and Avery Bradley had 19 while guarding Curry much of the night. “It’ll cause dissension in the team if you allow it to.”[But] at the time, the counsel that I got from my family, my agent, myself, was that it was the right decision to make.
Other players also could start moving, as this is around the time that teams start to see where they have the biggest needs heading into the next stretch of the season.
Thompson has been involved in numerous charity initiatives in his four-year career with the Warriors, including donating $20,000 for Thanksgiving dinners in Oakland last year and helping bag 1,000 lunches at a similar event in January.
In the very end of it, all Curry has to say was that, “it’s nice to know that I got a championship out of it, an MVP season out of it, and hopefully setting up for something better down the line”. They dropped the final three games of their six-game homestand.
Next game: Host Milwaukee on Friday.
Mirza Teletovic led the Suns with 24 points.
It just shows the resilience of this Warriors team, Curry said.
That lead expanded to 21 (70-49) when the Warriors opened the second half with a 14-3 run in less than three minutes.
Stephen Curry scored 38 points with 11 rebounds and eight assists and the Warriors improved to 24-0 this season by outlasting the Boston Celtics, 124-119, Friday night.
Consider this: since 2012, Curry has made more than 260 three-pointers per season and is already 31st all-time in three-pointers made. But in many ways, the streak now being over can be seen as a positive.
Can they parlay it into more consistent play – and more victories – on a four-game West Coast trip? “We both expect our team to win, and when we don’t accomplish that, it’s obviously a little more frustrating to not only lose, but to lose to your brother”. I guess they’re allowed one bad game out of every 25. Rajon Rondo in the news again for all the wrong reasons, this time due to using a homophobic slur at National Basketball Association referee Bill Kennedy, who came out on Monday as a gay man.
