Warriors vs Spurs

Spurs look to find their footing in game on of a west coast road trip.

With a vulnerable perimeter defense in Golden State (19th in defensive rating), Branham has a chance to continue his stellar play on the road. The Spurs will need to keep up with the Warriors scoring output if they want to have a chance on the road. The Spurs on the other hand give up the best 3-point percentage in the NBA, allowing teams to shoot 39% from range. The Warriors are the 11th best rebounding team in the league, averaging 44 boards a game. Once again the Spurs will have to navigate ever shifting lineups against a tough opponent. In their last game, the Warriors defeated the Spurs 144-113.

Can the Warriors cover a huge spread against the Spurs? Check out our NBA odds series for our Spurs-Warriors prediction and pick.

The Warriors will likely win this game on the backs of their shooting. They were able to rally from 11-down in a huge win against the 76ers that saw Poole explode in the final stages of the game. The Golden State Warriors are sitting in sixth-place in the West and have a tight margin between them and the teams next to them in the standings. If the Spurs can find some scoring in bunches, they should be able to cover the massive spread and keep this one somewhat close. The Warriors have won four of their last five and have a great chance to continue their winning ways against an outmatched Spurs team. The San Antonio Spurs are in 14th-place in the West and are 13 games back of the Trail Blazers right ahead of them.

For the game, they have announced their injury report (updated as of 7:30 Eastern Time). The Warriors have ruled out Andrew Wiggins, Ryan Rollins and Andre ...

Grading Steph Curry, Klay Thompson, Jordan Poole, Draymond Green, and the rest of the Golden State Warriors in the team's 130-115 win over the San Antonio ...

Jordan Poole went off in the second half. He rebounded like an absolute menace (8 rebounds in 18 minutes for a guard is ridiculous as is, but he also had numerous rebounds that he kept alive for teammates to grab). Then he hummed along in the third while the Warriors fell behind. In his second game on Tuesday he struggled. His block was one of the highlights of the game. In Payton’s first game back with the Warriors on Sunday he looked decent. And he couldn’t buy a bucket even with that nice new salary he got. He hummed along in the first while the team fell behind. Then he went ballistic in the second as the Dubs took the lead. Kuminga got the start for the second straight game. But he returned, and was an absolute ball of energy. A win was mandatory and, thankfully, found.

"He got an extra tip on the ball that kept it alive and then I was in the right place to steal it away," Curry said to NBC Sports Bay Area in the locker ...

The effect he has on games was felt from the start Friday night, in a win where he was given his most run since being back in a Warriors jersey. The second he stepped foot on the floor, the energy of the players and fans alike shifted in the Warriors' favor. In Payton's first game back with the Warriors on Sunday night, he played 15:29 and his plus/minus was a minus-9 in a three-point loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves. In 18 minutes off the bench, he scored seven points while going 3 of 5 from the field and made one of his two 3-point attempts. "He got an extra tip on the ball that kept it alive and then I was in the right place to steal it away," Curry said to NBC Sports Bay Area in the locker room after the win. With Tre Jones all over his back, Payton boxed out the Spurs guard, leapt for an offensive rebound of a Klay Thompson missed 3-pointer and fought to keep the play alive.

We’ve all sort of taken it for granted for a long time now but wat he’s meant to the league and to so many of us, it will definitely be a sad day when he retires.” “Nice to accomplish feats that are rare in NBA history,” Curry said. Thompson pushed his NBA-leading 3-point shot total to 285 while helping the Warriors to a 43-point fourth quarter after trailing 88-87 heading into the final 12 minutes. They shared a hug and some words after the final buzzer. They have an identical 41-37 record to the fifth-place Clippers, who hold the tiebreaker based on divisional record. We got so lucky to get a guy like him at the 28th pick, that doesn’t happen often.”

Most teams with bigs who aren't as versatile with their schemes opt to drop them back and let the defender guarding the shooter navigate over the screen. That ...

Just like what happened with the Thompson three out of “gaggle” split action, the Spurs switch the “gaggle” action between Thompson and Lamb in the clip above. That’s a long list of must-dos that teams have to check off — a tall task for most teams, let alone the most elite of defenses. The “gaggle” concept isn’t limited to just low-post split actions. The “gaggle” split action is consistent with the Warriors’ offense and its overall theme of forcing offenses to pick their poison. Running the same action twice means that defenses at the NBA level will most likely know how to guard it the next time around. Involving the Splash Brothers in that action massively increases the degree of difficulty for defenders:

Steph Curry, Klay Thompson and Jordan Poole combined for 20 made 3-pointers to fuel the Warriors' win over the Spurs on Friday night.

They are now 32-8 with the home finale coming on Tuesday against OKC. [April 1, 2023] The safest bets for two more wins are at home against OKC on Tuesday and the regular season finale in Portland. Looks like 43 wins would be enough for the Warriors to secure the No. Here’s a look at what fans and analysts were saying on Friday night. Payton II later came up with a block over Malaki Branham that lead to the Warriors taking a double-figure lead with under five minutes remaining. Curry’s fellow Splash Brother recorded a 30-point performance of his own with 31 points on 11-of-18 shooting from the field with seven made triples. The Warriors blitzed the Spurs for 43 points in the fourth quarter to secure their second straight victory at home, 130-115. [April 1, 2023] [pic.twitter.com/sgWyTSwCq3] With the Warriors clinging to a six-point lead with six minutes remaining in a tight game, Gary Payton II drilled a clutch 3-pointer to extend Golden State’s advantage to nine.

The Nuggets have had the best record in the Western Conference for over three months and have a two-game lead in the Western Conference over the second-place Grizzlies. He knows how to make winning plays and find himself in the right place on both ends,” Stephen Curry said of Payton following Friday’s game. And on Friday, he used his length, athleticism and hustle to help put the game away for the Dubs. With Jokic leading the way, the Nuggets have a top-tier offense that leads the league in field goal percentage and is second in both 3-point shooting percentage and assists. The Dubs outscored the Spurs 43-27 in the final period to close out a 3-1 homestand. He leads the team in scoring, rebounding and assists, and he has 29 triple-doubles this season, two of which were against the Warriors. you can trust that he’s going to make those plays and he also gets the crowd involved.” While the Warriors have struggled overall on the road, they did win their two most recent matchups away from home, and a victory on Sunday would give the Dubs their first three-game road winning streak of the season. He saved the team’s possession, which resulted in a Klay Thompson 3-pointer that put the game away for good. The Dubs have ridden their mini-hot streak to get in strong – but not yet secure – Sunday’s showdown will wrap up the three-game season series between the two teams, and the Dubs are still seeking their first victory over the Nuggets this season. He didn’t convert that shot but he dove on the floor to recover the ball.
