The Golden State Warriors worsened the Dallas Mavericks’ crisis with a blowout win, as visitors, 116-147 over the Texans. Stephen Curry and co. were just too much to bear for Rick Carlisle’s team and they earned a big win over one of the most disappointing teams in the NBA this season.
Besides the big win, the Warriors saw one player go after Luka Doncic and trying to intimidate the Slovenian player after one specific player. At some point in the 3rd quarter, Damion Lee scored on Doncic and gave him a big message afterward, showing how confident the Warriors were in the game.
“Little ass boy,” Lee yelled following his and-1 play against the 21-year-old.

In the end, Luka finished the game with 27 points that didn’t help the Mavericks prevent the blowout loss against the Warriors. The Mavs’ defense was nowhere to be found and the Warriors took the most advantage of that.
Golden State moved to 12-10 after losing the prior game to the Boston Celtics and keep demonstrating they can compete this season. As for the Mavs, they’re not the worst team in the West because the Timberwolves are just terrible, but this situation is very serious for them. Rick Carlisle will have to figure things out before it’s too late. Doncic is already frustrated with the team and that is just not good.
