BROOKLYN - The Warriors have found all sorts of ways to win during their record-setting start to the season, but victory No. 22 was definitely a new one.
Boredom.
The Warriors battled fits of seeming disinterest that made Sunday’s 114-98 victory closer than it should have been against the five-win Nets at Barclays Center.
After leading by 17 points in the first quarter, the Warriors started mindlessly tossing the ball around on offense and lackadaisically rotating on defense - just long enough to let the Nets take a third-quarter lead.
But it’s got to be scary to the rest of the league that the Warriors can look bored and still win.
