Post game sadness thread: Warriors cannot adjust, do some more losing

It was close, but a series of late stumbles and some solid play from the Heat sealed another L for Golden State

The Golden State Warriors lost again, this time to the Miami Heat. In what has become a sadly predictable pattern, the Warriors got sloppy and fell short after a late push from the Heat.

I’m not sure which version of a loss hurts more. This was far from a blowout, but despite a mighty triple double from Stephen Curry, Golden state blew it. It’s a win or lose league, and this team is fresh out of room for any sort of moral victories.

Andre Iguodala waved goodbye to the referees and went to the locker room after this late 3 shot foul was overturned. Might end up deciding it.

It is still plenty early in the season, but Golden State is running out of excuses. On the bright side, Andrew Wiggins and Curry both looked pretty darn good tonight. A couple of late plays break the other way, or if Golden State gets an extra whistle or two and things could have ended differently.

They didn’t though. Klay Thompson needed 19 shots to get his 19 points, and the bench hemorrhaged points yet again. It’s a great time out!!

That’s an 0-3 open to this road trip for the reeling Warriors. Losses in Charlotte, Detroit, Miami. They’re 3-5. *Plus/minus for the five GSW starters tonight: +3, +6, +7, +8, +11 *Plus/minus for the five GSW bench players tonight: -23, -22, -9, -8, -8

The Warriors have now dropped three in a row. They’ll lick their wounds tomorrow before returning to action against the Orlando Magic on Thursday.
