This does appear to be the better alternative than being humiliated by Golden State in the First Round.
If Dwight Howard is leaving at the end of the season, he's not helping his Free Agent cause at all......hasn't scored double digits in back-2-back games in previous eight games. Five of those eight games were single digit scoring.
Memphis 7
LAC 6
Minn 10
@ATL 8
@OKC 16
UTAH 5
TORONTO 2
@IND 11
NO LeBron when the Rockets play at Cleveland tonight......NOTE: Toronto is just two games behind Cleveland for the best record in the East.
IF Golden State wins tonight hosting Washington, The Warriors will join the Chicago Bulls as the only two franchises to win 67+ games in consecutive seasons. Golden State (66-7) reached 67 wins in the final game last season.
For Golden State to NOT surpass the Bulls 72 wins for a season, GSW would need to lose 3 of it's remaining nine games......all season long, The Warriors worst stretch was losing 3 out of 11 games.
For the first time in his carrier, Klay Thompson scored 40 points in consecutive games.

Curry has NINE remaining games to make 400 3-points in a season. If he continues at his current average of 5 made 3-pointers per game, he ends the season with 395 3-pointers. I'm guessing Curry will up his average to reach or possibly surpass 400 made 3-pointers for the season.
