"The Golden State Warriors continue to waste the spectacular efforts of Stephen Curry, who has scored 87 points in two games since returning from a quad injury, but seen his team lose both to drop to 13-14 for the season. "I'm not doing my job well this year," coach Steve Kerr told reporters in Portland after Curry made 12 3s and scored 48 points in a 136-131 loss to the Trail Blazers on Sunday."
"Kerr identified rampant turnovers as the issue that he believes is holding them back most. The Warriors are turning the ball over an average of 16 times per game, sixth most in the NBA. They are 4-11 this season when they commit more turnovers than their opponent. The Warriors had 18 turnovers on Sunday, including eight from Draymond Green. "Just making bad reads, bad decisions," Green told reporters postgame. "Be more decisive. Take better care of it. Too f---ing old to be doing that.""
Stephen Curry has scored 87 points in two games since returning from a quad injury, yet the team lost both games and sits 13-14. Curry passed Michael Jordan for the most 40-point games after turning 30 (45). The Warriors gave up 40 fourth-quarter points to lose a 10-point lead in the final 10 minutes. Turnovers are a major problem, averaging 16 per game and contributing to a 4-11 record when committing more than opponents. The team posts a 113.4 offensive rating (20th), while the offense with Curry on the floor is 118.4 and the bench grades out at a 107.1 offensive rating.
