Without Kevin Durant, Draymond Green and Andre Iguodala on one side, Zach Randolph, George Hill, Bogdan Bogdanovic or De'Aaron Fox on the other, we had an interesting and a tight game for three and a half quarterbacks 'Oracle Arena.
Stephen Curry scored 18 points in the first half, with Pat McCaw (17 points), Nick Young (15 points) and Jordan Bell (10 points, 11 rebounds).
On the Kings side, David Stockton scores points with a superb performance: 23 points with 9/12 on shots, 8 assists, 3 rebounds, 2 interceptions, all in 28 minutes. The bad news of the evening is for the Dubs and Omri Casspi, victim of an ankle sprain.
Klay Thompson opens the fight by planting away after 50 seconds, bringing bad memories to one of his favorite victims: it was against the Kings that the back had scored 37 points in a quarter. Jordan Bell plays the Draymond Green with his defensive energy as offensive. Stephen Curry enjoys 12 points in the period but the young Kings do not let go and stay in touch after 12 minutes thanks to a good Skal Labissiere in particular (26-24).
In confidence, visitors will take the reins of the game on a 3-point Matt Jones, then keep them a good part of the period while on the other side we worry about Omri Casspi, whose ankle has turned . Nick Young and Stephen Curry, with two shots winning each, will put the Dubs back on track at the end of the quarter to tilt the defending champions ahead of the break (54-51).
