The new look Warriors have gone 9-2 since #10 Jimmy 'Buckets' has joined the team. Butler's presence alone has ignited Steph Curry and the rest of the Warriors. He brings more than just his talented play. Butler brings drive, energy, smarts, and an attack mode that has become contagious on the court. His presence has freed up teammates, allowing coach Kerr to experiment with different lineups. The result being a rejuvenated Warriors team who never surrenders and presents multiple problems for opponents.
Tonight's game against a team with the fourth best record in the league took all of four quarters, but when all was said and done, the Warriors were able to say 'Night! Night!' to the Knicks in Madison Square Garden.
In an early back and forth game that seemed evenly competitive throughout, it was the Warriors taking the ball and running with it after the Knicks got within one point (94-93) with 6:33 left in the game. By the time the home team scored their next basket the Warriors had built a 10-pt lead with 2:29 left on the game clock. From there it was an alley-oop, two layups and a Curry 3-point dagger that finally tucked these knicks into bed.
Look out NBA!
