Curry-less Warriors blown out by Barea, Mavs 114-91

The Golden State Warriors flopped without Stephen Curry, getting blown out for just their second loss of the season behind 23 points for Dallas' J.J. Barea in a 114-91 victory for the Mavericks on Wednesday night. Curry missed his first game of the season with a lower left leg bruise that might keep the NBA's leading scorer and reigning MVP out again Thursday at Houston. Klay Thompson, the other half of the Splash Brothers, couldn't make up for Curry's absence, going 4 of 15 for 10 points.
