Steve’s presser is over – there wasn’t much of a reaction from him over the Draymond incident tonight. Says he didn’t see it but they desperately need Dray to be on the court. Next time he addresses the media, I’m sure he will have more to say. – 1:14 AM

Stephen Curry just played 32 minutes in a very winnable game. Against a top conference rival. Who the Warriors might need the tiebreaker against. With Draymond Green out for most of the second half.

He’s moving fine, but not with that pop.

When defending Warriors, giving up offensive rebounds can be problematic because it leads to an extra possession.
Stephen Curry usually finds a way to get that second shot attempt.

Beal took a fall, looks fine. #Suns up 10-6 as Booker hits 3 off Beal hit ahead. – 10:17 PM

Understand Beal kicking it to Okogie for a corner 3 look, but two problems with that.
One, poor spacing.
Two, he can create a better shot for himself with a pullup.
Then Okogie wing 3. #Suns up 7-0 before Wiggins answers with 3. – 10:17 PM
