On Thursday, November 19, 2015 the undefeated Golden State Warriors were heading into a potential "Game Of The Season." They were playing the Los Angeles Clippers. The Clippers are doing good, but they could be better. The Warriors on the other hand, the best team in the league: undefeated, NBA champions, and MVP Stephen Curry. The odds were on the Warriors side. Stephen Curry having one of the best starts to a season in NBA history. The only player that did as good was Michael Jordan in 1995-1996. Also the Warriors are one of few NBA teams that have been undefeated so far in NBA history. The Clippers had the odds stacked against them, especially when their sharp-shooter, J.J. Redick, is out for the game and star point guard, Chris Paul, is playing his first game after being out for a week.
In the first quarter, the Clippers did great. Chris Paul had 18 points! The Clippers were leading the Warriors 41-25. If only the Clippers could keep this up. In the second quarter the Warriors outscored the Clippers 29-27. The score now being 68-54, Clippers leading. In the third quarter, Golden State outscored L.A. again, 31-23. There was still hope for the Warriors. The score was now 91-77. Now the fourth quarter was something else. The Clippers' defense just broke down in the final quarter. MVP Stephn Curry led the Warriors to outscore the Clippers 39-26. The final score was 124-117, the Warriors won. The still undefeated Warriors, beat the Bulls the next day, and then the Nuggets fell to the Warriors too. The Warriors are now 15-0 (15 wins and 0 losses).
