All Good Things… (Warriors 146, Bulls 109)

The saying goes that all good things come in threes, a double entendre that (a) accurately summarizes the Warriors’ most lethal weapon in a walloping of the Chicago Bulls on Friday night, and (b) hopefully reflects a positive outcome for the Warriors’ next game, an intriguing matchup against the Luka Doncic-led Mavericks. Want more threes? Stephen Curry passed Jason Terry for THIRD place on the all-time made THREEs list, putting him behind only Ray Allen and Reggie Miller. As a side note, while it took Ray Allen 1,300 games (note the three in the number) to get to his total of 2,973 (same note as above), it has taken Steph just 656 games to get to his total of 2,283 (and counting, same note as above). Descending further down the rabbit hole, Klay Thompson continued his three point barrage against the Bulls, shooting 21-35 (60%, which is divisible by 3) on the season and adding to his Jackie Moon-inspired original total. Jonas Jerebko made a Steph-style end-of-quarter heave, which was good for 3 points. Andre Iguodala splashed in a triple, as did Quinn Cook and Marcus Derrickson. And if we peer through the looking glass, Stephen Curry’s jersey number contains a 3, as do the jersey numbers of Draymond Green, Kevin Durant, Shaun Livingston, and Marcus Derrickson. Andre Iguodala’s jersey number is 3 squared, Quinn Cook’s jersey number is 3 plus 1, Kevon Looney’s jersey number is 3 plus 2, and McKinnie’s jersey number is 3 cubed plus 1.
