The Golden State Warriors and their run came to an end tonight. After being unbeaten on the road this season, and coming into the game with a 7-game win streak, LaMelo Ball and co. had different plans. The Hornets never let the Warriors find their shooting stroke, and their high-energy defense kept the Dubs at bay.
Andrew Wiggins scored 28 points and grabbed 6 rebounds. Stephen Curry scored 24 points, dished 10 assists, and grabbed 6 rebounds. He shot only 3/13 from the deep, and the whole team shot 9/39, a poor 23.1% from 3s.
The game was a close affair throughout, with the largest lead either side had was 7 points. There were 25 lead changes and 14 ties and the game came down to the wire. After the game, Steph and Draymond Green sat down and discussed what went wrong.
Draymond Green and Stephen Curry discuss what went wrong tonight
Draymond Green had a simple observation about what went wrong tonight. The Warriors had a slow start to the game, and while that may work at home, the conditions are not the same on the road. The crowd at home cheers for you, and gets you hyped, whereas the crowd away would always try to get you into a funk.

Stephen Curry continued right where Draymond left. He talked about the start they had, and the poor shooting they exhibited. Steph took responsibility and said he took some shots that he shouldn’t have. Curry also talked about the importance of taking different shots when the 3s aren’t falling.

The Warriors would sure like to work on these things. They face Kevin Durant and the Nets next, and a win against them would do wonders for the team’s morale.
