With a Klay Thompson on fire (38 points), the Warriors tame the Suns

On fire at long distance and well helped by a Klay Thompson (38 points) of the big nights, Golden State offers the Suns at Chase Center (123-112).

For the stat sheet of this match, it’s here.

This is a match that smelled good of the Playoffs and especially the sulfur between two teams that are not really known to appreciate each other enormously. We remember that a few months ago, Klay Thompson and Devin Booker had for example taken the cabbage suddenly trashtalking in Arizona. Chance or coincidence, the Splash Brother offered one of its biggest outbreaks of the season once morest Phoenix. extremely boiling, Stephen Curry’s sidekick chained the strings of the parking lot in the first half, arriving at the break with… 33 points including 8 winning shots!

In the wake of their sniper, the Warriors are boiling (66% from afar at the break!) and tear up the Suns piece by piece. Even Andre Iguodala finds his 20-year-old legs by swinging a reverse out of nowhere. The match seems bent but the Cactus will rebel following the break with Devin Booker and Deandre Ayton. After counting up to 25 points behind in the first act, Phoenix manages to come back to only three small lengths.

The Warriors will then close ranks to take off once more thanks in particular to a good end to the match from Jordan Poole, author of 10 of his 20 points in the money time. The infernal address of the Thompson – Curry – Poole trio (16/28 from a distance) and the lack of support around the Ayton-Booker duo were the main keys to this meeting. A duel that we might well see once more in the not so long time because if the classification were to stop today, Suns and Warriors would then face each other in the first round of the Playoffs. Oh what a great poster, especially with a Kevin Durant back once morest these old Dubs friends.
