Mazzula said Holiday’s ability to protect the Curry-Payton P&R, one of the most talented players in the league, “was huge for us.” – 7:32pm

#Celtics lead #warriors 97-63 after 3rd quarter. Brown, Tatum, Porzingis and Holiday will take the fourth quarter off in preparation for a tough series against an LA team. Tatum 22, Porzingis 18, Brown 17, Pritchard 11, Holiday 10. Curry 18, Moody 10. – 6:53pm

If you’ve ever wanted to understand Curry’s season:
He just missed a three (to go 2 of 9) and got the ball back up top…one-on-one with Porzingis. Boston led by 27 points. Still, Jrue Holiday, who was guarding Guy Santos, hit a double, forcing Curry to give up the ball. – 6:43pm

The C’s send Brown into Curry’s post to start the second half. – 6:32pm

Gary Washburn @gouache burn gloves
#Celtics lead #warriors 54-39 at the half. They struggled in the final 3 minutes and 30 seconds of the first half, but overall they focused and played hard. Porzingis 12, Tatum 10, Brown 8, Holiday 7. Curry 9, Schroder 7.
3pt: BOS 7-24; GSW 3-24. – 6:13pm
marcus thompson @thompson scribe

The Warriors finished the first half with 39 points, the fourth-fewest points of the first half of the season.
They are 3 of 24 from 3. Curry is 1 of 7 from 3. Wiggins is 0 of 8.
The fact that the Warriors were trailing by just 15 points at halftime shows what’s going on in Boston’s midfield. – 6:11pm

marcus thompson @thompson scribe

The Warriors fell to 9-of-35 (25.7 percent) from the field and had eight total points since Curry’s two free throws gave them a 17-15 lead at the 4:51 mark of the first.
That’s 8 points in 11:45 of game time – 6:02pm

#Celtics Playing with more energy and ball movement. So far we’ve hit the board and gotten contributions from everyone. #warriors Not great in non-Curry minutes, going 2-for-18 on 3PT. BOS 42, GSW 25. – 6pm

Curry entered the game with 3:35 left in the game, and the Warriors lost 19-17.
In the remainder of the first quarter, Buddy Hield made one-third of his three FTs for a point.
Time other than Curry -9 – 5:38pm

More than two years removed from their last title, Stephen Curry feels the Warriors can still beat anyone. He doesn’t want a “desperate” trade. I just shed the same sweat of “I want to win…”. [if] All my efforts are directed toward that, and no matter what happens, I can survive.” espn.com/nba/story/_/id…3:50pm

Steve Kerr “expects” Stephen Curry (ankle) to play today against the Celtics. You still need to warm up.
There are no official updates regarding Draymond Green (calf). It looks like it’ll be later today, but it’s clear the Warriors expect Draymond to miss a significant amount of time. – 3:17pm

“What you’re really trying to do is see if you can make a little bit of a move that can help your current team,” Kerr told ESPN. “We’re going to do everything we can to be as competitive as possible and put the best team possible around Steph without mortgaging our future, and it’s the right decision.” – via ESPN / January 20, 2025

Bobby Manning: Mazzula: “On the first play of the game, Curry deflected a pass.” From that point on, you could see the Celtics getting more physical with their post touches. “I thought JB did a good job of setting the tone in terms of his physicality.” – via Twitter @RealBobManning / January 20, 2025

Gary Washburn: The #Celtics bounced back from Saturday’s tough loss with a 125-85 win against GSW. Tatum 22, Porzingis 18, Brown 17, Pritchard 14, Holiday 10. Curry 18, Moody 13. #Warriors FG: BOS 49-92, GSW 32-92. -via Twitter @GwashburnGlobe / January 20, 2025
