Turnovers and rebounds are weighing on the Warriors in Toronto


Stephen Curry vs. Scotty BarnesNo fourth straight win for Warriors. However, the usual explosion of Stephen Curry in the third quarter he gave Golden State a hand on the floor Raptors and even if Toronto increased the defensive pressure greatly in the fourth quarter, Steve Kerr’s players seemed to be able to pull away when their leading scorer put them up +7 (113-120) 1 minute 43 from the end of the match…

It’s just that the Warriors were caught by all the problems, first of all loose balls, but also determined offensive jumps that offered the opponents too many other chances.

Brandon Ingram they even had a match point, but in the end, the Canadians made the difference in overtime (141-127) against the exhausted Californian team, which obviously had no more fuel.

WHAT TO REMEMBER

– Lost balls and offensive rebounds. Once again, the Warriors collapsed in the money clock. Trapped by the Raptors’ all-court pressure and the two-man possession, Steve Kerr’s players panicked, piling up turnovers to chip away at their lead and finally explode. The lack of size was also difficult, while Scottie Barnes produced a return harvest that sapped the opposing team’s morale.

– Triple-double for Scotty Barnes story. Taking advantage of his physical advantage against the smaller Warriors, Scotty Barnes produced rare statistics (23 points, 25 rebounds, 10 assists). Only Wilt Chamberlain (18 times), Elgin Baylor (2), Maurice Stokes, Bob Pettit, Bill Russell, Billy Cunningham, Maurice Lucas and Nikola Jokic have already managed to compile such a stat line in Major League history.

– The Warriors are showing their age. Stephen Curry certainly collected 39 points, but he still seemed on his knees in the final moments of the match, while Golden State’s offense depended too much on his performance. Overall, Steve Kerr’s players suffer from the physical impact of younger and more athletic teams. Especially since it’s hard for executives to get used to this reduced margin for error. Like an ugly turnover by Draymond Green, despite having a good game, with a minute left. Coming out of timeout…
