‘Steph playing with his food’ — GSoM reacts to Tuesday’s win

A live look at the reaction from Warriors fans to Tuesday’s win.

The Golden State Warriors did what they had to on Tuesday and took care of business, crushing the Phoenix Suns 133-95. For one delightful night, we were treated to stress-free basketball, as the Warriors were in control through and through.

Here’s how Warriors fans reacted to the action in live time, seen through comments on the Golden State of Mind game thread.

First quarter: ‘We fixed Steph’

After a three-point game on Sunday, Steph Curry came out fired up on Tuesday, dropping 13 points in the first frame. He was in total control and so were the Warriors, who led 37-24 after the opening 12 minutes.

Second quarter: “A Steph and Podz show”

They were even better in the second quarter. The defense cracked down, while Curry kept scoring, and Brandin Podziemski started to make bucket after bucket. It was a blowout at halftime, with the Warriors leading 69-43.

Third quarter: ‘Foot on the gas!’

The Warriors came out strong to start the third quarter, and never let the Suns get close. Meanwhile, news came in that the Milwaukee Bucks had beaten the Minnesota Timberwolves to help the Warriors get a little bit of a cushion in the standings. They led 95-61 at the end of the quarter, and the stars were all headed to the bench.

Fourth quarter: ‘Good for the heart’

The fourth quarter was just garbage time, and we got to see Steve Kerr empty the bench. The subs took it home, securing a 133-95 victory, and keeping the Warriors in the sixth seed in the West.
