Regular Season Round 59: Golden St.W. - Philadelph.76 126-86
Date: December 30, 2014
Marreese Speights has provided a big lift for Golden State as a scorer off the bench. So it was only natural that as a starter, the 6-foot-10 center wanted some recognition for his passing. He got it, but only after pointing it out to Warriors coach Steve Kerr at halftime. Speights scored 23 points and matched his season high of four assists, Stephen Curry added 13 points and nine assists, and the Warriors beat the Philadelphia 76ers 126-86 on Tuesday night. "Oh yeah, I made sure he shouted me out for that," said Speights, who went 9 of 13 from the floor. "He's always shouting me out for buckets, but I had a couple of assists the last couple games. It means a lot. I'm learning from the guys in front of me on how they pass the ball." It helped that it came against the 76ers, the team that drafted Speights with the 16th overall pick in 2008. Speights spent three unhappy seasons in Philadelphia, then bounced back and forth between Memphis and Cleveland before signing with Golden State before the 2013-14 season. Speights made his third start this season because the Warriors' top two centers - Andrew Bogut and Festus Ezeli - are sidelined with injuries. "I didn't play him a couple games and he just stayed ready," Kerr said. "Then he got himself in the rotation and he's been in ever since. Mo's had a fantastic season scoring and doing his thing." Draymond Green had 10 points and 10 rebounds and Leandro Barbosa scored 17 off the bench for the Warriors, who won their 10th straight home game to improve to an NBA-best 25-5. Golden State led by as many as 47 in a game that was even more lopsided than the final score. Kerr pulled his starters early in the fourth quarter, only to see his reserves add to the lead. Henry Sims had 19 points and seven rebounds for Philadelphia. The 76ers (4-26) have dropped three straight following back-to-back road wins over Miami and Orlando. "I think you have to stay grounded and be reminded that it's all about the process," coach Brett Brown said. "It's hard to say that when you just lost the way that we just did, I get that. But there are some things you walk away and you can learn from." The Sixers scored the first six points but were outscored 32-11 the remainder of the first quarter, when they committed 11 turnovers. Klay Thompson had 11 points for Golden State early, while Speights provided an immediate spark in the second quarter after a long rest on the bench. He blocked a shot by Jerami Grant, scored on three straight long jumpers and later added a dunk to help extend the Warriors' lead to 61-34 at halftime. Courtesy of: newsok.com
