The Dallas Mavericks got blown off the floor in San Francisco Wednesday night, falling to the Golden State Warriors 112-87. Steph Curry led a balanced Warrior attack, scoring 21. Luka Doncic was the high point man for Dallas, scoring 20 but only two of those came after half time.
The opening frame was a frenetic and fascinating quarter of basketball, with the Warriors throwing a variety of defensive looks at Luka Doncic and pushing the pace at nearly every opportunity. Offensive rebounds were an early problem for Dallas, with Kevin Looney grabbing three early resulting in second chance points for the Warriors.
