After Action Report

The Warriors ran roughshod over the Kings 130-102. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Warriors cashed in. Warriors' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Warriors' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Warriors locker room is humming, and it showed. Tonight's Kings utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Garbage time started early.

What tipped it

  • Warriors · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Warriors · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Kings · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Kings · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Kings · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
