Unstoppable. Golden State Warriors linked this morning its sixth victory in a row, the 15th of the season (only two defeats) after defeating the Sixers (116-96) without Joel Embiid and Tobias Harris and with a comeback included in the second half: those from the Bay reached the break 19 points down and finished 20 up after smothering their defensive rival and with Stephen Curry as sweet.
The point guard was the top scorer of the game with 25 points (6/11 in triples: every day a little closer to Reggie Miller). In addition, he captured 4 rebounds and distributed 10 assists. He was not the only one with an outstanding performance, Toscano-Anderson left the Chase Center unsullied, with 13 points without a miss (6/6 on shooting from two).
100 or more points
The Warriors, with quick attacks and transitions, have become used to demolishing their rivals without any hesitation. In the 17 games that we have this season they have always exceeded 100 points and at home, the final differences in the last nine games always exceed nine digits: 21, 22, 41, 13, 14, 13, 26, 15 and 20. Figures obtained by attack, but also by defense. “Our identity is our defense”Stephen Curry confessed after the game.
The Sixers, meanwhile, continue to sink a little more each day. It is their seventh loss in the last nine games. The absence of Joel Embiid, within the anti-COVID protocols, and the Ben Simmons unanswered issue, are affecting a team: they are eighth with a 10-8 balance and already 3.5 games for Brooklyn Nets, leader of the Eastern Conference.
