3.2KWithout Curry or Iguodala, Warriors show inner strength with OT win over Hawks
NBA teams aren’t supposed to care this much. Not during the regular season, when games supposedly can be ignored until the final two minutes, and distinguished coaches like Gregg Popovich seemingly punt a game every few weeks. But on Tuesday night the Warriors showed something they’ve displayed throughout this entire historic season. They care … […]

4.3K12Warriors lollygag their way to 18-point win in Kobe Bryant’s last game at Oracle
This game was pretty weird. For anyone who’s been attending games at Oracle for any length of time, especially fans lucky enough to watch one of the several rollicking Warriors/Lakers matchups back when Kobe Bryant was in his prime and juiced to play in one of his favorite arenas, hearing Warriors fans chant his first […]

3.0K5Warriors’ fantastic four: they defend, they pass, and sometimes they even score!
It’s nuts that the Warriors, who were dying for a superstar — ANY SUPERSTAR — for so many years, suddenly have the best “next Jordan” since Jordan retired. “Like Michael Jordan was a whole other thing, this guy is his own thing,” Kevin Garnett said after Stephen Curry scored 46 in a win over the […]

3.2K2NBA Finals Game 1 Warriors notes: “Strength in Numbers” isn’t just a slogan
A lot of people billed this series as LeBron James vs. Stephen Curry, and if that was the case then the Cavs were the clear victors — even though Curry was hardly disappointing with 26 points, eight assists and four rebounds, as well as several key free throws in overtime after not getting to the line […]

3.5K2Led by Andre Iguodala, Warriors win phenomenal Game 1 of NBA Finals in OT
It was a game that could’ve gone five more overtimes and no one would’ve minded, but the Warriors outscored the Cavaliers 10-2 in the extra session to win 108-100 and take a 1-0 lead in the 2015 NBA Finals. Check that — a few players on Cleveland probably would’ve minded if they had to play an extra […]

3.2K3It’s a Trap: Warriors win Game 2 on last possession with their best defensive play of the year
After the Warriors jumped out to a 16-point lead in the second quarter, it didn’t seem feasible that they’d be forced to make one final stop at the end to win 99-98. But there was James Harden, with a head full of steam, 38 points, 10 rebounds and 9 assists already under his belt, and the ball in […]

3.0K10Play of the year, game of the year (for now): Warriors advance to Western Conference Finals
Only one play really mattered in this series. Oh, you’ll scoff. You’ll scoff me right off the court with that mess. But as much as it seems like this series mattered, it matters much less now that the Warriors won it. Now it’s about what happens in the next series. And if they win that […]

2.9K3Without Draymond Green and after a terrible first quarter, Warriors beat Clippers
The Warriors are the kids in class who’ve already locked up A+ grades, but choose to complete the extra credit assignment anyway. Once you think you’ve seen them prove everything they possibly can during this regular season, they go to an entirely different level. Tonight’s 110-106 win over the Clippers — the Warriors’ 61st win of […]

3.0K4Warriors are tiny terrors, Fitz mispronounces, Livingston dunks, FTs are missed, Curry makes no-look three
These rumors about Javale McGee are funny, especially after watching a game like tonight’s 102-93 win over the Bucks. This isn’t about McGee’s “Shaqtin’ the Fool” appearances, either. Lately, the best Warriors lineups have featured players 6′ 8″ and shorter. Golden State squandered a double-digit lead in the closing minutes of the second quarter, with Michael Carter-Williams […]

4.2K1Warriors go small, come back from 26-point deficit to win in Boston
The Warriors haven’t played many close games all season, and in a year where wins have seemed surprisingly easy to come by at times, on Sunday night they still managed to do something they haven’t done before — this season, anyway. Stephen Curry’s 37 points led the Warriors back from 26 down in the second quarter, […]

3.0K3Warriors win by 43, gain intriguing new player
Another day, another Golden State Warriors rout. This time it took place on Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, and the Denver Nuggets put up a fight for about three minutes before the Warriors’ offense caught up with their defense and the lead started expanding at a rapid rate. The afternoon ended extraordinarily early (in terms of effort […]
