15 awesome moments from the Golden State Warriors 15-0 start
By Ian Levy
Last night the Golden State Warriors waltzed into Denver and calmly brushed the Nuggets aside to run their record to 15-0. It’s been an absolutely incredible start to the season for the defending champs. So now let’s take a look back at some of the best moments from their run.
Obviously there have been more than 15 awesome moments, but come on, we can’t just post a highlight of every single offensive possession. Also, these are not in any sort of order. Anyways let’s just get into it.
Steph Curry’s pass to James Michael McAdoo
This was Steph using all of his stunting powers. Behind-the-back passes are one thing, but he just casually went behind-the-back before throwing the pass. Oh, and of course the pass itself was immaculate.
Festus Ezeli’s block on Blake Griffin
Blake tried to come into Oracle and throw one down, but Festus had a rather simple response for him.
NEVER.
Harrison Barnes yamming on Dwight Howard/Andre Iguodala’s reaction
MY. GOODNESS. That was from the first weekend of the season, but it was immediately a dunk of the year candidate. Plus, Iggy’s reaction is perfect.

Steph Curry’s deep three and celebration against the Clippers
Savage.

Rude.

Andre Iguodala’s celebration against the Clippers
Round II of Warriors-Clippers this year featured, what a surprise, another collapse by Los Angeles. Then Iggy went and rubbed it in their face with this shimmy.

Steph Curry embarrassing Kirk Hinrich
Oh no, Kirk, just head back to the bench, buddy. It’s not safe out there for you.

Steph Curry from the tunnel in short shorts
How could we not include at least one cash out from the tunnel. It’s become a staple in the legend of Steph Curry. (Also, shoutout to the guy yelling out “SPLASH” before it goes in.)

Steph Curry’s pass to Harrison Barnes
Barnes ended up not finishing that break, but my word, that pass, those handles! That’s an impressive combo to hit at half speed, let alone on a full out break.

Steph Curry from just inside halfcourt to beat the buzzer
Poor Grizzlies. Always great, never quite great enough.

Steph’s miracle heave against the Grizzlies
10 percent luck, 20 percent skill, 15 percent concentrated power of will, 5 percent pleasure, 50 percent pain, and a hundred percent reason to remember the name.

The Warriors’ perfect possession
This should be scored by Mozart.
