Steph Curry did everything in his powers Wednesday night, scoring a game-high 50 points, but it wasn’t enough as the Warriors lost to the Clippers.
A few seconds after the Green-Westbrook exchange, Marcus Morris Sr. forcefully grabbed Draymond and slung him to the ground, resulting in a flagrant-2 and automatic ejection for Morris.
Technical fouls can be rescinded upon league review, but it’s likely that Draymond will be sitting Friday night when the Warriors face the Hawks in Atlanta.To achieve their season-long objective of consistency, the Warriors lately have focused on early defense in hopes of eliminating poor first quarters which have been a habit.
Their goal was to build leads in the first quarter. They accomplished it in each of the last two games, both victories at home. The Warriors failed in this game. They were terrific early, taking an 8-1 lead while forcing six consecutive missed field goals, but the Clippers responded with some defense of their own and that changed everything.
The Warriors scored only 15 points over the final 9:30 of the quarter, while the Clippers poured in 27, shooting 58.8 percent during that span.That took the Warriors into the second quarter trailing 28-23, the first time they’ve fallen behind in the first quarter since, well, their last road game, last Thursday at Memphis.
