Though Stephen Curry, Kevin Durant and Klay Thompson shoulder the scoring load, Draymond Green might be the Warriors' most valuable player. Curry (34 points, six assists, eight rebounds), Durant (28 points, five assists, 10 rebounds, career-high six blocks) and Thompson (23 points, six rebounds) hit a combined 11 three-pointers on a night Golden State scored 54 points in the paint. Perhaps the Warriors' most glaring shortcoming Saturday was that they failed to record 30 assists, snapping a franchise-record streak of 10 games reaching that number. In addition to leading the Warriors in blocks and defensive rebounds, he entered Saturday among the league's top 5 in contested shots and deflections. Midway through the second quarter, after a Curry turnover, Ricky Rubio found Gorgui Dieng for a breakaway dunk that put the Wolves up 41-40. Seemingly disgruntled with their team's sloppy defense, Warriors fans rained down a chorus of boos. Hungry for a statement road win, the young Wolves trimmed their deficit back down to single digits in the third.
