Golden State Warriors Defeat San Antonio Spurs in Game 1 of First Round Ian Smith

Now, Golden State has a chance to take full control of the series with a victory in Game 3 on Thursday night (9:30 p.m. ET) in San Antonio. With the Warriors focused on completing the series as quickly as possible in an effort to get some much needed rest, there is no reason to expect Kevin Durant and company to let their foot off the gas heading in to Game 3 National Basketball Association matchup.

He also made 5 of 8 shots from behind the 3-point line.

The Warriors are four-point favorites in this 2018 National Basketball Association playoffs game and the over-under for total points scored is 206.5. Game 1 starter/Game 2 reserve Kyle Anderson has one point in 20:55.

Golden State would be much better with the ball in the second half, however, flipping the script on the Spurs.

On Thursday night, the San Antonio Spurs and Golden State Warriors will go head-to-head in Game 3 of their first-round series in the 2018 National Basketball Association playoffs.

Except for sporadic reports that the two-time NBA Defensive player of the Year would not be available for the current San Antonio Spurs' first round date with defending champion Golden State Warriors in the post season playoffs, there really has no definite answer to this question that has been hounding the play-for-pay's community for sometime now. The Warriors got off to a fairly slow start, making only 4-of-13 three-point attempts in the first half, but they'd begin to find their stroke in the second. With their biggest star sidelined for the playoffs, the Spurs have been outscored by an average of 18.0 points while falling in to a 0-2 hole. Aldridge finished his double-double effort with 12 rebounds, as well, which was also a game-high. The Warriors handed the Spurs a second straight double-digit defeat on Monday night as Kevin Durant and Klay Thompson continued to power one of the league's top offenses while awaiting Curry's return from a Grade 2 MCL Sprain. He spent the end of Wednesday's session completing both light shooting drills as well as running and lateral movement exercises. Patty Mills had 21 points and Rudy Gay added 12. "We know we can do better than what we did, but I'm not going to feel embarrassed or I'm not going to go compete less if I admit they are a better team".
