After a week of tusslin’ with some potentially playoff bound Northwestern Division teams, the back-to-back champion Golden State Warriors got to meet up with one of their Pacific Division mates.
And what a vigorous beating it was. The Warriors throttled the Phoenix Suns, 123-103, on the second night of a back-to-back. It was a much needed win after a two-point loss in Denver the night before. It was also the champs’ first blowout of the young season; I had almost forgotten what it was like to see Stephen Curry and Kevin Durant chillin’ on the bench for the entire final period.
