Warriors Are So Embarrassed About Huge Loss to Mavs They Won't Even Watch the Film
By Chris Pyo
The Golden State Warriors have lost nine of their last 10 games, and everyone else in the NBA couldn't be happier after suffering through their dominance over the past five years.
In the aftermath of their horrific 142-94 loss against Luka Doncic and the Mavericks Wednesday, Steve Kerr didn't have much to say to the media. In fact, he explicitly stated that the team wasn't even going to watch any film from the game.
Steve Kerr after the 48-point loss: “Flush it down the toilet. We’re not going to watch film on this. Move on to Utah on Friday.”

How bad can a professional team lose a single game for their head coach to explicitly state that they were essentially going to throw every shred of evidence from the contest in the dumpster?
The Warriors were without Draymond Green Wednesday because of right heel soreness, which means they rolled out a starting lineup consisting of Ky Bowman, Alec Burks, Glenn Robinson III, Eric Paschall and Willie Cauley-Stein.
No wonder the Mavs were leading 44-16 after the first quarter. In fact, Doncic had a 35/10/11 triple double in only 26 full minutes of play. He had 22 points in the first quarter alone.

At this point, is it really worth it for Stephen Curry to return this season?
The Warriors are now 3-13 and sit dead last in the Western Conference. There's still a lot left to the season, but it's not looking good for the Warriors. Don't be surprised if Curry doesn't come back at all.
