Another night, another tough L for Stephen Curry and the Golden State Warriors. Curry and his team took a quick road trip to the other side of California on Sunday and got their butts handed to them by Lebron James and the Los Angeles Lakers in a resounding 117-91 loss.
After the loss, Curry opened up and gave the Warriors his most honest Yelp review for their season so far.
“I think we've been average,” Curry admits after Sunday's loss, via Connor Letourneau of The San Francisco Chronicle.
That's a resonating 2.5 stars coming from the two-time MVP.
Stephen Curry and Co. seemed to have woken up on the wrong side of the bed, as the Lakers immediately opened things up with a 20-point lead in the first 12 minutes of play. From there, the defending champions kept their foot on the gas and shut down the Warriors en route to their 11th home win this season.
After winning three straight, the Warriors fell back to earth with the loss against LA. Curry tallied just 16 points and put up just 13 shots in 26 forgetful minutes. It was Eric Pascall who ended scoring a team-high of 18 points, with only three Dubs scoring double digits all evening. To make matters worse, Draymond Green didn't return to the floor in the second half after he tweaked his ankle in the opening 24 minutes.
The Warriors now have a few days off before closing out the first half of the season with a back-to-back road trip against the Portland Trail Blazers and the Phoenix Suns.
