The Golden State Warriors pulled off a big win tonight against the Miami Heat at the Chase Center. Steph Curry dished 11 assists and Brandin Podziemski led scoring off the bench, but the story of the night was Jimmy Butler's scary knee injury in the 3rd quarter.

Butler was playing great—scoring 17 points before going down awkwardly after catching a pass. He immediately grabbed his right knee and had to be helped off the court, unable to put any weight on it. The team later ruled him out for the remainder of the game, and an MRI is expected to determine the severity.

The injury overshadowed what was otherwise a highly competitive matchup between two playoff-tested teams. Butler's absence was clearly felt, but the Warriors capitalized on being motivated by the loss and closed the game with poise and confidence.

The Warriors played host to the Hornets at Chase as the homestand continues and, thankfully, the winning streak remained unbroken. Although the Hornets aren't doing particularly well, they were coming off a victory agains the Lakers, giving them a much-needed confidence boost that made them potentially deadly.

However, the Warriors continued its trend of solid play on defense, that's converted to good efforts and execution on offense. Although Steph Curry looks to be firmly in the midst of a mid-season slump, he still contributed. Jimmy Butler was unexpectedly out of the game, but that didn't knock the Dubs off their game, as De'Anthony Melton delivered another electrifying performance, and Buddy Heild, Draymond, Podz, Moody, and Will Richard stepped up on both ends.

The Warriors faced their toughest challenge yet on the homestand by going up against the visiting New York Knicks, who were second in the Eastern Conference. The Knicks have since dropped down to third behind the Cletics after being defeated by the Dubs.

What started off with the worrying return of turnovers quickly stabalized thanks to consistent three-point shooting from Moses Moody and another excellent effort from Jimmy Butler. Although Steph Curry had a rough first half, his shooting returned to form in the second. Off the bench Melton continued to be a rocks-teady foundation for defense. Together, the team managed to secure a win against a challenging team.

Join us as we talk about the ongoing superb performance from Melton; Jimmy's reliable and dynamic shot-creating and shot-making, and valuable contributions from Podz, Moody, and more.

The goal: Win all the upcoming home games to put the Warriors in a stronger position in the standings. After two wins in a row, the Warriors took on the Atlanta Hawks and were thoroughly outplayed by a team that, on paper, they should beat.

However, after trading Trae Young, the new talent showed they are a much better team than most would think. Whily Curry, Butler, and Melton put on great performances, the lack of any major offense threat meant that their efforts were unfortunately in vain.

After a heartbreaker against the Clippers, the Warriors returned home to take on the Bucks and begin an eight game homestand that could have a big impact on the team's standings. Giannis had a big game but Steph struck back with a monster performance of his own.

Joining Steph were Melton and Horford, who both came off the bench to be major contributors, with the former making threes in critical moments and the latter delivering rebound after rebound. Join us to recap a mercifully uneventful win against the Bucks. Draymond also played a key role in ensuring the defense was rock solid.

The Warriors lost to the Clippers by one point in a game that continued the trend of awful officiating by NBA refs against the Warriors. A clear goaltend as well as a call on continuation resulted in Steve Kerr being ejected. While the Warriors played exceptionally well, the team's shooting woes kept them from running away with the game.

And while they remained competitive, they weren't able to secure a victory that would have been comfortably earned if the refs had made correct calls. On this solo episode, Tamoor talks through each quarter of a frustrating and disappointing loss.

It will come as no shock that the Warriors' game against Jazz featured Draymond Green getting multiple technicals and being ejected. What may surprise you, however, is that Draymon's anger was arguably justified, even if his actions weren't the smartest.

Despite the early-game ejection of the Warriors' defensive mastermind, the team managed to secure a victory in large part due to extra effort from Steph Curry and Jimmy Butler III. The Jazz, clearly having studied the tape on individual players as well as how the Warriors play collectively, put up a good fight and, at various points, looked poised to take the lead and win.

Thankfully, solid play from a variety of players maintained control. In this episode we break down what happened, with attention given to standout players like GP2 and Podz, as well as Melton. We also talk about what the Warriors need to do in the upcoming trade window to improve their outlook.

The first game of 2026 for the Golden State Warriors was agains the reigning champions the OKC Thunder and minutes before the game any hopes of a surprise victory were dashed as the Dubs revealed all their key starters would not be playing.

Without Steph, Jimmy, and Draymond, as well as Melton, the bench had a lot to shoulder and, expectedly, they weren't ablle to carry the team to an upset. The Warriors were blown out by OKC, despite a decent start.

The bigger point of discussion on this epsiode, however, is a quote from Steve Kerr about the Warriors place within the current league and the teams chances against the likes of OKC and Spurs. Let's just say it wasn't confidence-building in any way.

The Golden State Warriors closed out the year with a win against the Charlotte Hornets, finishing its three-game roadtrip with two wins and one loss. Although the game against the Hornets wasn't exactly smooth sailing, the trend of the Dubs showing incrimental improvements continued with tighter play and overall better shooting.

The team went up against the same challenges in turnovers, Steph being doubled, and being picked up with pressure at full court, and seem to show that they're making some progress in sealing up those weaknesses.

It wasn't an examplary performance, but it was heartening enough. This, in large part, was thanks to solid play from Steph, Podz, Jimmy, and Gui anchoring the team, with great contributions from other members of the squad. Let's break it down and discuss how they're looking going into the game against OKC.
