After Action Report

The Warriors outlasted the Kings 111-103. Warriors' offense had its way with the Kings. Second-chance points piled up for the Warriors; the Warriors played with the chip of a recent gutting loss. The Warriors bench chemistry carried them. The Kings rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.

What tipped it

  • Warriors · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Warriors · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
  • Warriors · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
