The Blazers had already been largely dominated against the Kings (126-94) and the expected reaction against the Warriors, even without Damian Lillard, never came. The defending champions, however, evolved without Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, Andrew Wiggins and Jordan Poole, but they had no trouble winning.
The absent executives are the young people who did the work. Moses Moody notably scored 11 points in the first quarter and James Wiseman followed. Golden State had already scored 68 points at the break.
In the third quarter, Steve Kerr’s troops drive the point home with a 35-15. The Blazers are very clumsy, defend poorly and the gap widens, rising to 39 points. Finally, Moses Moody (20 points), James Wiseman (18 units) and company won 131-98.
Portland, which has only beaten Maccabi Haifa, is still waiting for a preseason victory against an NBA team.
