The Sixers continued their west coast road trip tonight in Oakland against the Golden State Warriors. Once again there was ample scoring and little defense. Once again the Sixers could not keep up with the running and gunning Warriors as they dropped their 2nd game in a row. Golden State shot 56% from the field and 9 threes while the Sixers shot just 38% from the field and hit just 4 threes. Despite the poor shooting the Sixers actually still wound up with 7 scorers in double figures. So if they had shot anywhere near their percentage against the Suns they would have won this one. Instead it was the Warriors with the hot hand on the night, with a 6 point 62-56 lead at the half and a 12 point 91-79 lead heading into the 4th quarter. There, despite a late Sixer comeback attempt the Warriors eventually closed out an eight point 119-111 win. So the Sixers drop back to 34-33 overall but remain 6th in the Eastern conference.
