Golden State Warriors

JUST NEW: THE HAVE ANNOUNCE THAT ONE OF THE PLAY JUST GET AN INJURY TODAY………

The Warriors and their fans are likely scratching their heads today after a defeat on Friday that appears to have been snatched from the jaws of victory. At this point, the team is running out of ways to turn things around with the postseason

Friday’s game against the 5th-placed Dallas Mavericks was supposed to be the team’s seventh consecutive win and one that would have put them within touching distance of that coveted sixth seed.

Indeed, with a two-point lead at halftime and seemingly playing the better ball, it looked as though the Dubs were on their way to doing just that, something that guard Brandin Podziemski seemed to imply during his halftime interview.

“We’re just playing with desperation,” Podziemski said. “We know our season is on the line. We’re trying to get up to that six seed, being only three games back.”

To be fair, sitting in 10th place coming into the game and back in defensive flow as seen by how they overturned a 16-point deficit early in the contest, it really did look as though the Warriors would be good for the win. Sadly, it was not meant to be.

As time went on, the defense started to fail, Draymond Green’s massive work rate started to fade, and Steph Curry began to look mortal as the Mavs’ defense took its toll. In the end, the Warriors went down 108-106.

What that means, is barring a miracle, automatic qualification for the playoffs won’t be achieved this season.
