Dec 5, 2015; Toronto, Ontario, CAN; Toronto Raptors guard DeMar DeRozan (10) battles for a rebound with Golden State Warriors guard Klay Thompson (11) during the second half of the Warriors 112-109 win at Air Canada Centre. So while Curry and Green may have been two of the leading offenders in the Warriors’ overzealous sloppiness, Walton left them in through the entire third quarter to clean up their own mess. They held a 57-42 lead late in the first half but settled for a 57-54 lead after giving up 12 straight points.
Power forward Thaddeus Young has stopped shooting threes for the most part and the only legitimate bomber on the team is Jack, but he hits just 1.1 per game. Down 75-72 with 2:44 left in the third quarter, Walton called a timeout.
Point guard Goran Dragic had 17 points and eight assists for the Heat.
Next, the Warriors look to extend their record to 17 games in Phoenix on Friday night. “Just trying to see if I can get some room and figure out a way to impact the game”. “Everywhere we’re going right now. It’s not like we went to Steph and told him to shoot more threes, he’s just gotten better and he’s choosing to do that”.
“But it won’t be a disappointing effort if we don’t get there because there are so many talented teams in this league”.
“I think everybody’s staying in the moment”. The Nets seven-point deficit suddenly inflated to 17, midway through the fourth quarter.
Toronto led 98-95 when their forward Luis Scola made two free throws with just over four minutes to play in the fourth, but Curry tied it with a three-pointer. “He’s a great player”, said Brooklyn coach Lionel Hollins.
No team has finished a road trip 7-0 in the National Basketball Association. “He doesn’t have to go out there and do it all the time”.
The Warriors kept their ideal streak going with a victory over the Raptors in Toronto last night, but it wasn’t as easy as some of their other games have been. “When he needs to he can and when he doesn’t need to he takes a backseat to those guys”.
“That’s what great players can do”. They’re a good team.
“We feel like we always have that big punch in us”, Curry said afterward. At times we got a bit confused on our matchups and transitions. They fought back. They fell short. They’ve faced pretty much every situation possible.
Lack of team contribution: It’s no secret that when the Raptors share the ball and have a balanced attack on offense, they win.
This was a Nets team that came within a Brook Lopez shot from point-blank range of upsetting the Warriors at Oracle Arena three weeks ago.

“When he needed to, he stepped up and put the dagger in us”.

Insofar as they were facing the Nets on the second night of a back-to-back set, quality depth was crucial to the Warriors maintaining perfection. You can forget any playoff second-round aspirations if we have a exhausted Lowry, limping into the playoffs. He has more threes so far than the Miami Heat, Minnesota Timberwolves and Brooklyn Nets.
