OAKLAND – The Warriors’ issues extend beyond remembering their plays, as basic as that sounds.
The Warriors suffered a 115-107 loss to the Detroit Pistons on Sunday at the Oracle because of issues that have gone unresolved through the first two weeks of the season.
After struggling to hold onto double digit leads, the Warriors squandered a 14-point edge over Detroit less than 24 hours after the Pistons (5-2) upset the Clippers in Los Angeles. After struggling to hold onto the ball, the Warriors committed 26 turnovers. After struggling to defend consistently, the Warriors allowed Detroit to shooting 12-of-27 from 3-point range, while Avery Bradley (23 points), Reggie Jackson (22), Tobias Harris (16) and Stanley Johnson (15) cracked double digits.
