Patrick breaks down the Golden State Warriors' 141-114 smack down of the young Oklahoma City Thunder at Chase Center. In their first full game without the recently injured Stephen Curry, the W's nearly played a perfect game. Klay Thompson dropped 12 threes en route to at highly efficient 42 points and Jordan Poole showed he might be able to make a different kind of leap as a passer, leader, and (dare we say) a decision-maker?!! The squad definitely needed this one as they look to build momentum heading into the All-Star break.
