Steph Curry and Klay Thompson Outscore the Entire Phoenix Suns Team for 3 Quarters
By Rob Perez
Ok so it’s apparent the only way you can beat this Golden State Warriors team is by catching them on the second leg of a road back-to-back, at the tail end of a seven game road trip, after they played a double overtime game in a different city the night before — because now they’re back home for a while and if last night was any indication, every game they play is going to be an absolute bloodbath.
Wednesday night vs. the Phoenix Suns, the Dubs fell behind by a couple early — but, it was one of those games that had the “It’s not a matter of if, it’s when…” feelings to it … and boy did it ever…
With Golden State down 42-40, this happened:
Steph went absolutely bonkers…
Scoring so fast the camera couldn’t even keep up…
If Sidney Dean were watching, he’d be saying: “It’s prettay — it’s SO prettay…”
Steph even did the Suns the courtesy of putting his mouthpiece in before draining a three in their grills
The Warriors got so bored they started nutmeg’ing themselves…
Lunacy ensued…
And eventually Drake was even like: “Yo screw the Raptors, I’m a Warriors fan now — let me tell you why…”
Then, it was Klay’s turn going off for TWENTY-SEVEN points (9-11 FGA, 4-6 on 3PT) in the third quarter:
They weren’t chip shots either…

At the end of the third quarter, the scoreboard looked like the score of the Monstars vs. Tune Squad game in the first half of Space Jam:
And the Splash Brothers alone had recorded 68 total points vs. 65 by their opponents as a TEAM.
Just another night at Oracle Arena, I guess….
