Warriors record streak ends with loss to Bucks

Curry checked back in with 6:57 left and the Warriors trailing 91-79, but in the end, they got no closer as he finished 2 for 8 from 3-point range.

After the game, Golden State fans remained long after the final buzzer, cheering Curry when he went to the locker room after his postgame, on-court TV interview.

Giannis Antetokounmpo recorded a triple-double, Greg Monroe had 28 points and the Milwaukee Bucks did something no team has done yet this season: they defeated the Golden State Warriors 108-95 on Saturday night.

The circumstances, then, were all in place for an upset, but that alone can’t explain why Milwaukee so soundly defeated Golden State.

Golden State struggled with their shooting as the home side disrupted their normally fluid offense and stormed home in the back end of the fourth quarter to end the Warriors’ streak.

That’s not wrong. The NBA calendar is a daunting opponent.

The Warriors drop to 24-1 on the season, while the Bucks improve to 10-15. The Bucks players deserve the majority of credit for this victory.

That tied the Warriors for the second-longest winning streak in league history at 27, but separating themselves from that mark was perhaps their toughest challenge yet. But the gamble paid off more times than not.

Pistons 118, Pacers 96 – Reggie Jackson had 21 points and nine assists to lead a balanced attack and help Detroit rout IN and record its fifth consecutive home victory. The Bucks ran their offense through him from both the elbow and the block, where sets created to free shooters often dissolved into successful low-post opportunities for the skilled ox. He also had seven boards and five assists. Curry agreed that the Warriors hadn’t been playing their A-plus game of late.

As such, the Warriors didn’t so some things well that they usually do well. With recent injuries to two starters in Klay Thompson and Harrison Barnes, the Warriors main focus will be to make it into the playoffs at full strength.

Curry couldn’t inspire a comeback this time.

The teams exchanged runs for pretty much the first three quarters.

Going big simply didn’t work.

But this is irrelevant nitpicking.

Green said that since the start of the seven-game, 13-day trip that he thought the team had stopped getting better and kept racking up wins more because of its experience and talent. They were 6-of-7 from the field when running off Warriors turnovers. While the Warriors are making headline after headline, the other good teams in the National Basketball Association are flying under the radar.
