The Golden State Warriors became the second team in NBA history to reach 70 wins — and locked up home-court advantage throughout the playoffs — with a 112-101 victory over the San Antonio Spurs on Thursday night.
Warriors forward Harrison Barnes had 21 points on the night, trailing only Steph Curry (27 points) in scoring leaders for this ridiculous Golden State squad. And Barnes’ most notable offensive highlight came on a play he didn’t even score.
Watch Barnes fake Spurs guard Kevin Martin right out of Oracle Arena with this move in the fourth quarter:
That’s humiliating. Poor Martin. I also liked Steph and Draymond Green watching the replay on the jumbotron:
So, Barnes had a great night on the basketball court, and continued his excellence into the postgame media session, regarding the Warriors’ chase of 73 wins:
