Warriors Rout Spurs 120-90 In Battle Of The West’s Best

It was just last week that the Golden State Warriors demolished the Cleveland Cavaliers in a rematch of last year’s NBA Finals. On Monday night, they delivered another statement of intent by routing the San Antonio Spurs, their closest competition in the Western Conference, 120-90.

Unsurprisingly, Stephen Curry dominated with 37 points in three quarters of work; even more impressive, however, was the ease with which he beat Kawhi Leonard, the reigning defensive player of the year. After the game, though, Curry was quick to downplay the significance of the occasion.

“No moment’s too big, obviously,” he said. “We know this is just another regular-season game, but there was some hype around it. Every time we have an opportunity to prove who we are and take another step in the journey, we’re ready for it. It wasn’t always that way. This core has been together for a while and understands how to mentally prepare for nights like this.”
