The most striking image to have come out of Wednesday night against the Portland Trail Blazers is that of Steve Kerr channeling Dr. Bruce Banner when he transforms into the Incredible Hulk. It was the proverbial cherry on top for a night where the Warriors were clearly gassed and devoid of any motivation to give their best effort.
It was the second game of a back-to-back, and two of their important bench players — Andre Iguodala and Shaun Livingston — were sent to an early vacation. DeMarcus Cousins was also rested, and the Warriors were forced to reach deep into their bench to supplement their four All-Stars.
