If all three of them have it going at the same time, the Warriors are going to kill teams. If he is, the Warriors have to continue to attack him on the defensive end, because they once again had no chance of stopping him on the offensive end in Game 3.

Thanks to committing just the three aforementioned turnovers in the second half, the Warriors got up 13 more shots than Memphis for the game. Using the threat of the 3 and their typically relentless movement, the Warriors attacked the paint, where they outscored Memphis 62-44. It added up to a 76.1 true-shooting percentage, the second-highest mark ever recorded for a single playoff game, trailing only the 77.8 TS% the Clippers put up against the Mavericks in 2020.

Can the Warriors race out to a commanding 3-1 lead? Golden State is undefeated at home this postseason heading into Game 4 against the Memphis Grizzlies.

If I'm being completely honest, even if Morant plays Game 5, I think the Dubs have momentum on their side now, and playing at home will get them over the line regardless. TV channel (U.S.) Morant's injury notwithstanding, the Grizzlies should be concerned about giving up 142 points on the road in a game where Curry only made two shots from beyond the arc. If he's not, then I don't see much of a world in which the Grizzlies keep it close given how this series has played out so far. While they might not shoot over 60% again, the Warriors did clean up the turnovers in the second half of Game 3 which allowed them to pull away. Adams: I expect the Warriors to once again come out focused on the their home floor.

Grading Steph Curry, Jordan Poole, Andrew Wiggins, and the rest of the Golden State Warriors in the team's 142-112 win over the Memphis Grizzlies in Game 3 ...

The Grizzlies are upset, though it doesn’t seem like anyone outside of Memphis saw it as a dirty play by Poole. Either way, hopefully Morant is OK. Then, when the Warriors had built a strong lead, it felt like every shot was a debilitating gut punch that reminded Memphis that they stood no chance. Really valuable minutes from Lee, who stated a strong case for more playing time. He also crashed the glass in a huge way. First, he played half of the game. He boxed out, kept numerous offensive rebounds alive, and generally outworked a Memphis team that rarely gets outworked. In my opinion, this was one of Wiggins’ best games as a Warrior. The stat sheet may not pop out at you, but he did everything the Warriors want him to do. It’s hard to give someone anything other than a perfect grade for scoring a point a minute on hyper-efficient shooting splits, but his early mistakes hold him back a bit here. His defense was poor, he made a few disaster plays on offense, and did more harm than good. He got the Dubs into their actions quickly, and preyed on a Memphis defense that rarely had time to set. Green’s turnovers continue to be a bit of an issue in this series. Wow. That was a whole bunch of fun.

Get a recap of the Memphis Grizzlies vs. Golden State Warriors basketball game.

Morant hit a 31-foot 3-pointer midway through the first and Williams dunked shortly after for a 21-8 lead and Memphis made 6 of 9 shots to start the game. ... Golden State is 4-0 playing at home during this postseason and 49-11 dating to the 2015 title run that ended with the franchise's first championship in 40 years.

I don't think he's at full strength like he was in the regular season but he’s the ultimate competitor,” Jenkins said. But Morant couldn't do it alone for Memphis, and he was done after rubbing his tender right knee and limping off with 6:19 to play before heading to the locker room. "He was going after a dribble and Jordan Poole actually grabbed his knee and yanked it, which kind of triggered whatever happened, so I’m actually going to be very curious to see what happens after that." “We just become much tougher to guard.” “I’ve been through a tough knee injury, and I don’t think there’s any malicious intent from Jordan,” Thompson said. "When we doubled him, I hit the ball, l was going for the ball. “I don’t even think he’s strong enough to affect somebody’s knee. He will be sidelined indefinitely, also with ligament and muscle damage. We just watched the replay," Memphis coach Taylor Jenkins said.
