Heading into Thursday night’s showdown in San Francisco, the Warriors had beaten the Knicks 10 straight times when Steph Curry was on the court. Half of those times Golden State won by 20 or more points. Only once did the Knicks finish within 10.
These Dubs are not those Dubs, of course. But still, the Knicks walloped the Warriors on Thursday night behind a career-high scoring effort from RJ Barrett, another almost triple double from Julius Randle, a jam fest from Mitchell Robinson, and a healthy dose of mostly everyone else. Alec Burks was back after missing 12 straight games with an ankle injury.
