The Golden State Warriors made NBA history Tuesday night by winning their 16th straight game to start the season, blasting the Los Angeles Lakers, 111-77, at Oracle Arena.
With the league's most efficient offense matched up against the third-worst defense, the Warriors imposed their will from start to finish in a showcase of solid shooting, pinpoint passing and seamless execution.
The defending champions shot 48.9 percent from the field and 34.3 percent from three, but their most impressive statistical achievement came in the form of 32 assists on 45 made baskets. By comparison, the Lakers assisted 16 times on 31 converted field goals.
Even though Stephen Curry (24 points, nine assists) couldn't find a particularly strong rhythm in catch-and-shoot situations, the Warriors overcame his shaky stroke thanks to a collective performance led by multi-positional wizard Draymond Green, who finished with 18 points, seven rebounds and five assists.
Curry shot 10-of-21 from the field and 4-of-12 from three on the historic night, but supplementary contributions from Harrison Barnes (eight points), Andrew Bogut (eight points, seven rebounds), Festus Ezeli (nine points, seven rebounds), Leandro Barbosa (13 points) and Klay Thompson (11 points) helped Golden State maintain its offensive equilibrium.
The story was drastically different for the Lakers, who watched Kobe Bryant muster four points on 1-of-14 shooting (1-of-7 from three). According to Basketball-Reference.com, Tuesday marked the second time in Bryant's career he's made one or fewer shots while attempting at least 14.
