Golden State Warriors Finally Lose To Milwaukee Bucks

The 1971-72 Los Angeles Lakers can breathe easy.

The Golden State Warriors’ win streak stopped at 28, as they lost 108-95 to the Milwaukee Bucks Saturday. Despite Klay Thompson playing, the Warriors seemed to struggle to score. Steph Curry had 28 points on 10 of 21 shooting, including 2 for 8 on three-pointers.

The Warriors struggled to score from three-point range, making just six of 26 from beyond the arc. The Bucks, on the other hand, were as hot as they could be.

Greg Monroe scored a season high 28 points, and Giannis Antetokounmpo racked up a triple-double with 11 points, 12 rebounds and 10 assists. At any moment, it felt like the Warriors were going to rattle off one of their crazy scoring runs to take the lead back and continue the streak.

But it wasn’t meant to be, and the team pointed out that there were benefits to losing.

“I think probably the last seven or eight games, we’ve stopped getting better,” said Warriors power forward Draymond Green, who scored 24 points and pulled down 11 rebounds. “We just know how to win, and so, our playing, and knowing how to win has just gotten us through. But, our playing and knowing how to win won’t get us another NBA championship.”

The thought of the Warriors getting even better is a terrifying prospect for the league. They just ripped off 24 wins, proving the depth of their bench on nights where the starters didn’t play well, and had some gutsy wins, including the double overtime win over Boston.

But for now, there’s 24-1, and the excitement of the Bucks, after knocking off the game’s best team.

“We never wavered,” said Monroe.
