HOUSTON (AP) – Steph Curry and Klay Thompson scored 29 points each and the Golden State Warriors stretched their winning streak to a season-high six games with a 133-110 win over the Houston Rockets on Thursday night.
“We know we can score against most teams but defense has been our calling card,” Curry said.
The Warriors, who are in 10th place in the Western Conference, never trailed and built a 15-point lead by halftime behind 21 points by Thompson. He made seven 3-pointers with five of them coming in the first half.
“Man, he was smoking and that was fun to watch,” coach Steve Kerr said. “He was feeling it right from the beginning.”
Kerr said he’s not focused on the standings, but rather how they can build on this momentum.
“We´re not thinking about any of that, we´re just trying to win,” he said. “We´re on a nice run right now and we´re playing good basketball. So we´re going to do that for the next six games and see where we land.”
