Warriors

Stephen Curry gave his second 50-point performance of the season in Wednesday night's loss to the Clippers.

[Andre Iguodala](https://www.espn.com/nba/player/_/id/2386/andre-iguodala) is out indefinitely with a left wrist fracture. "I expect something to change," Green said.

But with time running out, questions on whether they will be capable of making it over the hump are becoming more prominent. They've been able to beat nearly anyone at home, but once they leave the walls of Chase Center, they crumble, no matter how much momentum they've seemed to build in San Francisco. The Warriors have allowed 124.1 points per game on the road and 111.7 at home. "Yeah, I think we did play better, but at the end of the day, you've got to come out with a win. But at the same time, players want to see results. The other one was back in November against the [Phoenix Suns](https://www.espn.com/nba/team/_/name/phx/phoenix-suns) -- also in a loss. The frustration is growing for the Warriors. "You just sit and think about what more could I have done to help him?

Batum’s 3-pointer with 9:07 remaining put the Clippers up 109-97. It was a great, great game. The Clippers (37-33) have won four straight to move into fifth place in the Western Conference. “When a guy like that (Curry) explodes, we stayed with the game plan. He was 9 of 11 and had one stretch where he hit five straight shots. “You know they are going to make big runs, but we kept our composure, stayed steady and executed on the offensive end,” said Leonard, who had his fourth 30-point effort in the last eight games.

Russell Westbrook and the Los Angeles Clippers defeated Stephen Curry and the Golden State Warriors in the fourth and final...

In nine games with the Clippers, Russell Westbrook is averaging 13.4 points, 4.4 rebounds, 7.4 assists, and 1.4 steals on 48.5 percent shooting from the field. Every night, he shows up and plays hard. “The one thing about Russ we all know is no matter what people say about him or how he’s playing, he competes,” Stephen Curry added on Russell Westbrook. "The one thing about Russ we all know is no matter what people say about him, he competes… Four of his nine rebounds were on the offensive end, which directly led to nine of the Clippers’ season-high 27 second-chance points scored in the game. The season series finishes tied at 2-2, and the Clippers’ win gives them a one-game advantage in the Western Conference standings.

Madrid have dropped points too frequently this campaign, particularly away from home. But if Madridistas are after a crumb of comfort, there have been two occasions of a team squandering a lead of six points or more after 26 games, which would be the scenario the sides find themselves in if Madrid win. Madrid, meanwhile, have not put together a winning run of more than four games in the league since mid-October, losing to the likes of Rayo Vallecano, Real Mallorca and Villarreal since then. But Madrid have won five of their past six league games against Barca, including their past two visits to Camp Nou – only once before, between January 1963 and February 1965, have they won three in a row there in the competition. Those 1-0 wins are something they have become accustomed to in the league, too, with nine of their 21 victories coming by that scoreline – more than they have ever recorded in a full season. Put simply, it is win-or-bust for Los Blancos' outside title hopes.

Los Angeles Clippers guard Russell Westbrook flipped the script against Draymond Green and the Golden State Warriors on Wednesday night...

I thought he did a good job of not solely standing all the time, but he made some shots that he missed last time." “I thought he did a good job of not solely standing all the time, but he made some shots that he missed last time.” After losing their first five games of the Russell Westbrook era, the Clippers have now strung together four wins in a row. Since joining the Clippers, Russell Westbrook is averaging 13.4 points, 4.4 rebounds, 7.4 assists, and 1.4 steals on 48.5 percent shooting from the field in nine appearances. His offensive rebounds directly led to nine of the Clippers’ season-high 27 second-chance points on the night. I had opportunities to be able to swing, make plays, and do anything I needed to do, and I just missed some shots too, it’s alright.

And yet, here the Warriors are still clinging to the No. 6 seed in the Western Conference, one game up in the loss column 7-9 seeds. Not much room for error, ...

[Russell Westbrook](/nba/players/1622555/russell-westbrook/) beat the Warriors to multiple offensive boards that led directly to buckets. 4 to the lottery and it wouldn't be a shock. It's his second 50-point game of the season and the 12th of his career, which is 10th all-time. But first things first: Golden State has to make the playoffs. This means Curry might need to go on another heater on Friday to give the Warriors a shot to win their first road game since January. The Clippers got second shot after second shot, which was too much for a Golden State defensive unit already stretched thin. This guy has been on fire pretty much since 2013, and the shots he was hitting on Wednesday were once again of the "you can't be serious" variety. [Stephen Curry](/nba/players/1685204/stephen-curry/) on a heater. The Warriors can't be concerning themselves with strategic seeding. That said, Golden State still has 12 games left, which feels like a season in itself with how closely packed the Western Conference standings are entering play on Thursday. 6 seed in the Western Conference, one game up in the loss column 7-9 seeds. Still, the Warriors lost 134-126 in Los Angeles, dropping their road record to an embarrassing 7-27.

The wild fluctuation between the Warriors' performance at home and on the road is inflaming Steph Curry's gut.

Whatever I’ve got to do in the process individually, just going to keep doing that.” “It’s nice to play well, shoot well,” Curry said. It may seem the factor that keeps Curry grounded, impeccable overall perspective, is potent enough to somehow shield him from the frailties afflicting the rest of us. We still got a lot of work to do.” “We got a little frustrated; nobody likes to lose,” Kevon Looney said. “Until we run out of games to solve it, we have to keep trying. He isn’t one to question the coach. It’s the nature of the game, the ebbs and flows of year after year, figuring out what it takes to win at the highest level. This was Curry’s second 50-point game this season, and the Warriors have lost both. “We’re doing everything we can to (fix it). LA had a 32-15 advantage in free throws, a 20-11 edge in points off turnovers, a 27-11 edge in second-chance points and a 14-6 rout on the glass in the fourth quarter. . .”

Another night, another road loss — despite 50 points from Steph Curry. Can the Warriors turn this thing around in time?

And against the Clippers, who are now one game ahead of them in the standings, they fought hard. Things had been trending in the right direction for the Warriors. [Klay Thompson](https://www.foxsports.com/nba/klay-thompson-player) looks like Klay Thompson again. "I think winning on the road requires an incredible amount of mental strength, and it's not just one guy whose mental strength or two guys or a few guys," Green said.

And we've had some self-inflicted wounds on the road, but we've also played well enough where we've thought we should win, and we just haven't gotten it done. "It's like the ultimate tease," Curry said. They're the team to beat.

Steph Curry is one of the greatest 30 year old players in NBA history.

Russell Westbrook didn't have a tremendous shooting game against the Golden State Warriors on Wednesday night, but he certainly made them pay for sagging ...

Steph Curry scored 50 points for the second time this season. The Warriors lost, again.

Curry was 9 of 11 in the period and 3 of 4 from 3-point range. Before this season, the Warriors were 8-2 in games where Curry scored at least 50 points. Though the Warriors trailed after the first quarter, and fell to 0-18 on the road this season when down going into the second, Curry was on a quick heater. "It was stunning watching that show tonight, watching some of the shot-making, the playmaking. Playing all 12 minutes, Curry exploded for 21 points in the third quarter. No matter what the stat sheet looks like after the game, it's just frustrating when you can't get over the hump and figure out a way to get a win, especially with where we've been all season on the road. The third quarter was where he went nuclear. Curry in 2015-16 when he was named unanimous MVP finished with a 50.4 field-goal percentage, 45.4 3-point percentage and 90.8 free-throw percentage in his age-27 season. Jordan, LeBron James (twice), Kobe Bryant, Alex English and Jamal Crawford are the only other players in NBA history to score 50 points in a game at 35 or older. Since turning 30 years old in 2018, Curry now has seven games of scoring at least 50 points. He was 20 of 28 from the field, good for 71.4 percent. He was 8 of 12 from 3-point range, good for 66.7 percent.

The loss to the Clippers was costly, giving LA the inside track on the tiebreaker with a better division record in the standings.

Golden State Warriors: Andrew Wiggins has been away from the team for 13 games, and that absence was glaring in Wednesday's loss to the Clippers.

Wiggins would prefer to be on the court, but the off-the-court stuff takes precedence and isn’t guaranteed to be resolved anytime soon. Like Harrison Barnes in the Warriors’ dynasty’s early days, Wiggins is the linchpin of the Warriors’ small-ball lineup. You get the idea. Without him, the Dubs cannot reach their full potential. He’s been great this season, but the bar is lower for him now on the defensive side. Without him, the Warriors are playing three one-way players — a deadly combination in the postseason. I don’t expect that to change, even in the season’s final weeks. It’s one thing for Zubac to pull down an offensive board against a small-ball lineup, but for Russell Westbrook to grab four — all because the Warriors didn’t have enough bodies at the rim — is unacceptable. Is Wiggins the only route to improvement in those areas? But Wiggins brings all three things to the table. He could have guarded Leonard and George, saving the Warriors from playing a three-guard lineup that was eaten up by those two and Clippers center Ivica Zubac. And while Wiggins isn’t a big man, he’s a 7-footer in wingspan.

“What he's dealing with,” one player said, “is some real (expletive).” Wiggins' privacy deserves to be respected, according to Thompson, and the fact that an ...

Golden State Warriors Andrew Wiggins has missed the play for 13 games now and it continues to affect the team.

[Steve Kerr](/topic/steve-kerr)has begun to mention "if" Wiggins returns rather than "when." The Warriors cannot win a championship without Andrew Wiggins, their second-best player in last year’s playoffs, due to his contributions in perimeter defense, team rebounding, and secondary scoring. [Clippers](/topic/clippers)emphasized their [reliance](/topic/reliance)on Wiggins, their second-best player in last year's playoffs, to have a chance at winning a championship.

Curry scored 50 points on 20-of-28 shooting from the field and 8-of-14 from beyond the arc. It's his second 50-point performance this season.

The Clippers outrebounded the Warriors 44 to 36 and scored more points in the paint (50 to 48). And yet, the Clippers were able to sprint past the Warriors in the third quarter, win the game 134-126, and skip past the Warriors in the Western Conference standings. They sit in fifth place in the Western Conference. [LA Clippers](https://theathletic.com/nba/team/clippers/) prevailed against the [Golden State Warriors](https://theathletic.com/nba/team/warriors/) on Wednesday night, winning 134-126.

With the Warriors so ridiculously banged up, Green is becoming a very important part of the rotation. It was great to see Kuminga back on the court after a three-game absence due to a sprained ankle. They needed him to rebound more. They needed him to defend better. They needed him to shoot better. The Warriors got beat up on the glass, but Looney did his part in trying to keep that from happening. To take care of the ball so well while doing so much is absurd. They needed him to score more. It’s been a common misconception that the Warriors are getting beat up inside on the road ... Green may be the least of the team’s worries on defense, but for someone generally capable of running a defense all by himself, the team’s awful performance on the road has to reflect on him poorly.
