Good Morning Dub Nation,
The Golden State Warriors lost their fourth straight game last night as the Orlando Magic beat them, 130-129. It was a big letdown as Golden State let another winnable game slip through their grasp — this time to an Orlando team that held the worst record in the Eastern Conference.
Excessive fouling, bad defense, and another squandered lead from the team’s second unit were the main factors in this one. In what has become the norm during this road trip, the Warriors starting unit played well enough to build up a lead only to see it gradually fall apart as the reserves were sprinkled into the game. The results prompted head coach Steve Kerr to say that he will “make some changes” to the rotation.
