First evening of In-Season Tournament for the Warriors and first victory, even if it was extremely difficult to get this one. THE Thunder, yet deprived of its leader Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, played eye to eye with the Dubs throughout the evening. Chet Holmgren responded to Victor Wembanyama’s card with an XXL performance on both ends of the field. Lu Dort got hot after returning from the locker room and we had to wait almost three quarters to see him miss a shot. Jalen Williams was also a crowd pleaser with his usual explosiveness and aerial finishes. Long in the tough, Josh Giddey made up for it with big money time, even if he was guilty of the decisive action that won Golden State.
On the Warriors side, we will note the good contribution of the bench with the Saric triplet, Kuminga and a Chris Paul in caviar dispenser mode in a match where the attacks largely took precedence over the defenses. The hero of the day is called despite everything (and once again) Steph Curry. The Chief once again guided his people with 30 points, 8 rebounds and 7 assistsa good bunch of shots out of his world, and especially the winning basket scored in the last second of the match despite Lu Dort sticking to his shorts.

A shot that took a long time to be awarded with referees taking their time to decide whether Draymond Green was guilty of goaltending or not. It was ultimately Josh Giddey who was penalized for touching the net, automatically granting Stephen Curry’s shot and validating the victory for the Warriors.
OKC may have some regrets about this match, particularly with regard to the ball losses at the end of money time, but it is difficult not to send flowers to this team which held on without its superstar against the entire Warriors. Learning to manage without their leader is an excellent lesson for this young group who are always discovering more resources. A good omen for the future. Next meeting for OKC this Monday evening with the reception of Trae Young’s Hawks. The Warriors will be on deck this Sunday with a difficult trip to Cleveland.
