Finished with 34 in a game that the Warriors should have overwhelmed an inferior opponent. Still, a win is a win, and on the road.

Last season, Dubs were 2-8 in road games with no rest the night before (aka back-to-back). 2-0 so far this season.

I think I read that the Dubs have 15 back to backs this year- the most in the league.

Steph is averaging 31.8 mpg and is 4th in the NBA in scoring at 30.9 ppg. That's the least minutes played among NBA top scorers (top 15 currently) who are averaging 25 or more ppg this season.

He was red hot 1st quarter last night until he was taken out after making 4 of his 1st 5 three point shots. He did not regain that touch. He was then 3 for 12 for the last 3 quarters. I have seen this scenario countless times in Steph's career. Note to Kerr: Please do not interrupt a Curry flurry! Rest him after he's missed a couple of shots in a row.

"It's amazing to watch him. He looks better than ever at 35," Kerr said.
Where have I heard that before? Now if Kerr would just stop interrupting those Curry Flurries!

Jokic seemed to take an extra moment after the game to share a few words with Trayce. Seemed to be a mutual respect thing.

I was at the game and Steph's warmups long beforehand thanks to a former Cat footballer. He's obviously capable of fooling people, but I thought both he and Jokic looked a little fatigued at times. Tom thought so, too. We were pretty close to the action.

Might be a good thing. Force the rest of them to figure out a way to score.

Well, that aspect of the game worked out well. Everything else sort of went up in flames....

The season is rapidly turning into a sh*t show. I so wish they had moved Green.

Signing Green to a new four-year $100 million deal feels like its going to massively backfire for the Warriors and i think most, if not all, of us were confident that would be the case ahead of time. Steph is talented enough and playing well enough for the Warriors to remain a playoff team capable of beating the best teams, but I think the roster is going to need a major overhaul to get back to serious championship contention.

Hopefully Draymond will be thrown out of the NBA and have his contract voided for putting a choke hold on Gobert last night. I would not object to assault charges, conviction, and imprisonment. He's a bully, a'hole, and idiot. And he's over the hill as a player. Of course Kerr defends him post-game as he has for multiple similar stunts. Kerr should be ashamed. The Warriors were stupid to sign Green to a multi year contract.
