Tonight Stephen Curry debuted a new edition of his signature shoes featuring the stats from his 54-point barrage at Madison Square Garden a year ago. He only scored half that many this time, but added 11 rebounds and 11 assists in a 126-103 blowout of the Knicks, a game where Curry and the rest of […]
Mark Jackson often mentions how defense travels, and that’s why they’ve been a successful road team over the last two seasons. It took a 37-point first quarter from the Pistons to give the Warriors a wakeup call, but after that they unpacked that part of their game and surrendered just 59 points over the last […]
Eighteen left. If the Warriors are going to win 50, this one needed to be automatic. The Warriors weren’t that efficient from a shooting standpoint in their first game back after a short vacation (for everyone besides Stephen Curry and Harrison Barnes), but wins in Sacramento are never easy. So the fact that this game […]
The Warriors have faced a crisis of sorts in recent weeks. That’s mostly because they haven’t met preseason expectations at any point, save for their 10-game win streak back in late-December/early-January. They had reasons to feel like things would continue on the same downward plane early on against Chicago, with Andrew Bogut and David Lee […]
The Warriors thought their key to a prosperous season was consistent care and effort on the defensive end after giving up 121 to the Timberwolves. On Tuesday night they were taught something new during their 88-85 loss to the Wizards. “Just because we’re at home, we’re not just going to win games automatically,” said Stephen […]
While most people seemed to be watching the Grammys or the Pro Bowl (really?), my wife and I went to our first Warriors game together this season. It was cool to watch the team play from a different vantage point (Section 121, Row 13 — behind the left basket if you’re watching on television), and […]
Andrew Bogut isn’t a great free-throw shooter. If we’re drawing up a list of weaknesses, that’s the only one that could explain Mark Jackson’s hesitancy to play the team’s best defensive player and only shot-blocker in the final minutes of so many games, especially recently. Bogut isn’t perfect. He’s got an elbow issue that probably […]
The Golden State Warriors were rumored to be interested in a deal for (now former) Celtics guard Jordan Crawford last night, and this morning a trade was announced. Warriors acquire Jordan Crawford and MarShon Brooks in exchange for Toney Douglas and part of their TPE, according to sources — Marcus Thompson (@ThompsonScribe) January 15, 2014 […]
