Tonight’s the Night the Golden State Warriors Lose, Right?

“When it’s like that, you’ve got a shot at winning”.

“Those numbers are insane”, said Clippers star Blake Griffin, who had 27 points. “They’re the better team. And if we’ve got the chance to do it, why not?” The Warriors defeated the Bulls at the United Center 112-102 last December 7 led by Draymond Green’s 31-point performance.

“Whether they shoot well or not, that’s what fuels their offense – easy buckets in transition off of turnovers”.

“It’s going to be ugly some games, it’s going to be fun some games but we have to make plays down the stretch and we did that tonight”.

“But they made every big shot”.

Curry, despite missing eight of his 11 three-point attempts, had 27 points to lead the Warriors, who improved to 8-0 at home this season and 26-0 in regular-season games since the Bulls’ last visit. Jamal Crawford added 15 points.

Curry was 3-for-11 from long range, his least-efficient effort of the season from beyond the arc, and Barnes came back to equalize it, going 3-for-6 from deep. “Their ball found everyone”. Jordan and Rivers were whistled for technical fouls 23 seconds apart, and Curry was able to hit four straight free throws to cut the lead to 15. Klay Thompson had 25 points and Harrison Barnes finished with 21 points and seven rebounds.

When will the Golden State Warriors lose a game? The Nuggets are 2-5 ATS in their last 7 games playing on 1 days rest and 4-0 ATS in their last 4 games following a ATS loss.

Lillard’s 3-pointer with 3 1/2 minutes left gave Portland a 90-85 lead. A 70-point second half allowed the Warriors to leave Los Angeles victorious but the bumpy early-game play in which the Clippers scored 41 first-quarter points wasn’t being overlooked.

For the Warriors, Shaun Livingston (strained left hip flexor) and Kevon Looney (right hip surgery) are out.

The Clippers opened up a 55-32 lead but Curry fired in 14 of his 17 first-half points and the lead was trimmed to 68-54 at the break.

Rivers said during his pregame press conference Paul (groin) will play, while J.J. Redick (back spasms) will likely be out. According to ESPN, since the start of the 2014 season, the Warriors have trailed by 20 six times.

The Warriors prior to the game talked about it among themselves, interim coach Luke Walton said. On Wednesday, the Bulls began a four-game road trip with a 103-97 win over the Phoenix Suns without point guard Derrick Rose.
