The Golden State Warriors cross swords with the Phoenix Suns in a 100% NBA Western Conference duel. The meeting will be held at the Chase Center this Sunday at 2:30 a.m. The dictatorship of Golden State is now over, the franchise even being in full reconstruction, marked by the departure of Klay Thompson. As a result, the Warriors only occupy the 10th and final qualifying spot for the Play-Ins, with a record of 15 wins and 15 losses. Not surprisingly, they lost to the Memphis Grizzlies, although the score of 144-93 revealed huge defensive problems. The 103-113 victory on the floor of the Minnesota Timberwolves was insufficient to erase the doubts surrounding the team, and rightly so. Indeed, Steve Kerr’s men disappointed again by losing 105-111 against the Indiana Pacers, then 113-115 against the Los Angeles Lakers. Stephen Curry’s gang concedes a new setback, 102-92, against the Los Angeles Clippers, a direct competitor for a place in the playoffs.
For their part, the Phoenix Suns had a complicated start to the season, particularly due to the absence of their leader Kevin Durant. As a result, the franchise occupies 11th place in the ranking, with a record of 15 wins for 15 losses. Despite a good return from Durant, it remained insufficient to avoid the 111-120 defeats against the Indiana Pacers and 125-133 against the Detroit Pistons. To make matters worse, the schedule gets complicated: the trip to the Denver Nuggets turns into a correction for Mike Budenholzer’s men, who lose 117-90. However, they showed great resilience by winning the second leg 110-100. Unfortunately, the magic of Christmas was short-lived, as Bradley Beal and his teammates logically lost 89-98 against the Dallas Mavericks.
