Steph Curry and Klay Thompson each recorded season-highs in points in the Warriors' loss to the Orlando Magic on Thursday night.
Everything again wasn't enough, though. Curry scored 39 points, made eight 3-pointers and had nine assists. Not enough.
Down the stretch, he also had a handful of critical turnovers and committed five in the loss. Still, those stats should lead to a win. They haven't been lately.There was one ugly constant in the Warriors' loss. Through nine games, the Warriors can't help themselves. They simply cannot stop fouling. At all.
One of their biggest issues was evident again Thursday night from the start. In the first quarter, the Warriors were called for eight fouls and only took two free throws. The Magic in those 12 minutes committed half as many fouls and attempted 13 free throws.Golden State wound up being whistled for 30 fouls, including three technical fouls -- one on Draymond Green, one on James Wiseman and one on Steve Kerr. The Magic shot 46 free throws and made 33.
So in a one-point loss, the Warriors took 31 fewer free throws and the Magic made 23 more than them. This losing formula is only getting worse, and it has to end in a hurry.
