Stephen Curry and the Golden State Warriors went to Boston Sunday looking for a signature win over the East's top-seeded Celtics. They got the opposite of that.
The game was over before the halftime buzzer sounded as the Celtics led by an insurmountable 44 points. With the game out of hand, head coach Steve Kerr decided to throw in the towel and pull his starters in the third quarter.
Curry had a disappointing performance with just four points on a lackluster 2-for-13 shooting and 0-for-9 from deep.
The Celtics star duo of Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown torched Golden State, scoring 27 and 29 respectively through three quarters when head coach Joe Mazzulla pulled his starters.
