The Thunder thoroughly took care of the Warriors on Tuesday, embarrassing Golden State 126-102 in a game that wasn’t even as close as that score indicates. The Thunder completely dominated the Warriors, who now fall to 6-6 on the season.
While losing to the defending NBA champions isn’t necessarily out of the ordinary, getting so easily blown out by them is a massive wake-up call for a Warriors team that believed they had legitimate championship aspirations heading into the season. The Warriors have now lost each of their last six road games, including blowout losses in their most recent two against Oklahoma City and the Nuggets. Getting blown out by these top teams will surely challenge the notions that they can be true contenders.
