In the biggest game of the season to date, the home team came out and laid an egg.
The Golden State Warriors had a terrible first half and never came close to recovering in a 133-103 blowout loss to the Dallas Mavericks. Stephen Curry led the way with 27 points, while Mychal Mulder chipped in with 24.
Considering the implications, it was a disappointing effort from the Dubs, who came into the matchup just 2.5 games behind the Mavs for the prestigious sixth-seed in the Western Conference. Golden State was historically bad during the first 24 minutes.
