00:00It's already been the ebbs and flows of a long NBA campaign for the Doves. A great start to the year

00:0712-3. Entering last night 7-17. Since desperately in need of a win to crawl back to 500

00:16and that's what the Warriors get. Outright on the road as a seven-point dog in the Twin Cities.

00:221-16, 1-15. A couple of clutch shots from Steph Curry down the home stretch to cap off a 31-point

00:30night. It was Golden State ahead by as many as 12 early in the fourth and final stanza. The

00:36Timberwolves rallied back to make it a game but ultimately the Warriors huge road win in one that

00:42was needed in Golden State. It certainly was but also look at the Minnesota Timberwolves on the

00:48season now. 21-19 overall. 10-9 at home. That trade from Carl Anthony Towns picking up Julius

00:53Randall really hasn't worked out much in their favor. Then you could take a look at the Golden

00:56State Warriors just trying to hold on to that dynasty-esque sort of team players. Can we get

01:02one last season out of it and it's providing a 500 season even with the victory now at 20-20

01:08overall. But you still got those nights where you can lean on with Steph Curry and I understand

01:12once you get to the playoffs it really benefits the veteran teams. Younger teams probably benefit

01:17more in the regular season. Fresher legs. You can play on back-to-backs. You can play two games in

01:21three nights. No big deal. But in the playoffs particularly round number one you'll play on a

01:25Monday. Ben you might not play till Friday of that next week having four off days to get yourself

01:29ready. But the problem is you have to get to the playoffs healthy in order to participate. Those

01:34are the questions that we bring up with teams like the Lakers and also the Golden State Warriors.

01:37If you have to expend so much energy and play Steph Curry close to 40 minutes every single night

01:42what is he going to have left in the tank once you actually get to the playoffs. That's the

01:46tough part. But you'll take the victories when you can get them. That's a solid road

01:49victory for the Warriors just to even get them back to 500.
