The Golden State Warriors don’t measure their success by games played in December.
After the game, Bucks guard O.J.
“It’s exciting to go up against the guys who I went through the draft process with”, Porzingis said.
During Golden State’s long flight home from Wisconsin late Saturday, Walton could finally take a breath and reflected on the remarkable start his team had before the Warriors’ unbeaten run ended. Green brushed Mayo’s arm off, and some pushing and shoving between the teams ensued.
“We’re looking forward to it”, Thompson said of the quick rematch with the Bucks today.
Milwaukee sent shock waves throughout the league by ending the Warriors’ 28-game regular-season winning streak with Saturday’s 108-95 victory.
Mayo, however, said he didn’t understand what the big deal was about what he called his “little love tap”. “At the end of the day, [Green] felt that Michael Carter-Williams did something that wasn’t much class. He went even further with class speaking on our team situation”. We got a bucket on it, too. “Then we didn’t come out and play with that edge and that mentality”, interim coach Luke Walton said.
They played solid defense through three quarters as well. It led to this exchange between Green and Mayo. Mayo was angered by Green’s treatment of the Bucks in the media and wanted to stick up for his teammates.
It seems to me like a player who was having his best game of the season, against the defending champions, has every reason to celebrate. I’m just trying to get my team going’.
“There’s definitely some of that that happens when we need a spark”. With the bench unit starting the second quarter for the Warriors, the Bucks maintained and built upon their lead.
Across town in Manhattan, Arron Afflalo scored 29 points and made all eight of his free throw attempts in the last two minutes to help the New York Knicks to a 107-102 victory over the Minnesota Timberwolves. So, it’s nice to have him back out on the court, pointing out things here and there, doing some coaching, and putting us through some drills. “He was yelling at Steve, and Steve kind of leans over to us and says, ‘We’re good now”. Ten of those came in the fourth quarter, including a three-pointer that closed the 11-point run and gave San Antonio a 96-88 lead with 9:17 to play.
Warriors forward Draymond Green shoots against the Milwaukee Bucks on Friday.
Green had 21 points, nine rebounds and eight assists, and Ezeli contributed a 14-point, 10-rebound double-double for the Warriors, who were playing for the second time on a five-game homestand.
Golden State recorded its third consecutive home win over the Bucks despite hitting just nine of its 26 3-point attempts.
