The Dallas Mavericks (19 - 13) upset the Golden State Warriors (29 - 2) 114 - 91 on Wednesday night. Dallas looked like they came into this game on a mission and they sent a message to the rest of the NBA. The one asterisk to the win was that they beat the Warriors without Stephen Curry. The Golden State offense really struggled without him and it was clear they were missing his presence. Dallas took an 18 - point lead into the half and never looked back after that, outscoring them in every quarter. Dallas also dominated the rebounding and shooting, as they outrebounded Golden State 52 - 37 and shot 51 percent from the field and 52 percent from long distance. This team without Stephen Curry simply didn’t look like the same team. No player stepped up in his absence and the offense really had a tough time of getting things flowing. No player scored more than 12 points in the loss outside of a garbage - time 21 from Ian Clark and the defense was lacking as well. Draymond Green was also hampered by an injury and that was evident by his subpar performance. Green and Klay Thomson combined to shoot 8 - for - 30 in the loss and that’s simply not good enough with no Curry in the lineup. Golden State will look to bounce - back against the Houston Rockets on Thursday. The Mavericks got a great effort from everyone, as five different players scored at least 13 points. In the absence of Deron Williams, J.J. Barea has been playing brilliantly. In this game, he scored 23 points and dished out six assists. The unsung hero on this team is Zaza Pachulia though, who recorded yet another double - double here with 14 points and 15 rebounds. Pachulia now ranks fifth in the NBA with 17 double - doubles this season and has been one of the best offseason acquisitions at a bargain price. Dallas will look to keep the momentum going on Friday against the Miami Heat in their next scheduled game.
