During the Golden State Warriors' monstrous 141-102 win over the San Antonio Spurs on Wednesday night, Stephen Curry, Kevin Durant and Klay Thompson demonstrated a remarkable display of unselfishness, pointing to one another when DeMarcus Cousins was deciding who to pass the ball to:

Orlando Magic big man Aaron Gordon then took a funny, harmless jab at the situation on Twitter:
Lol cuz whoever get the ball has to make one more pass!! https://t.co/RQHaqndU4k

One thing is for sure: the Warriors definitely spread the wealth during the victory, as six Golden State players scored in double figures. Thompson led the way with 26 points, Durant scored 23 and Curry chipped in with 19. Cousins had 15 points in 17 minutes.
The Warriors have now won 13 of their last 14 games to improve to 38-15, the top record in the Western Conference. This recent run by Golden State came after a middling stretch where the Dubs went just 16-13, causing many to wonder if the apparent rift between Durant and Draymond Green was having a negative effect on the team and if the club was actually no longer a title favorite.
Of course, the Warriors have gone on to silence all of their critics over the last several weeks, and since Cousins made his debut on Jan. 18, the Dubs have looked nearly unbeatable.
Golden State is aiming to make its fifth straight finals appearance and is also looking to win its fourth title over the last five years. The Warriors have won back-to-back championships since Durant signed with the team during the summer of 2016 and don't appear to be showing any signs of slowing down.
