The Golden State Warriors got an impressive and much-needed win against the New Orleans Pelicans on Monday night, with Steph Curry and Draymond Green bringing star-level performances to the Smoothie King Center.
With the win, the Warriors moved into the No. 8 spot in the West, provisionally controlling a double-elimination spot in the play-in tournament, rather than the dreaded single-elimination. It also put four games — as well as two teams — between the Warriors and Pelicans, which has the Dubs looking essentially locked into a postseason spot.
A good win, all around.
