Warriors overcome rough start to rout Magic

Warriors overcome rough start to rout Magic With a noon tip-off looming against the Magic, Warriors players grabbed a quick breakfast, threw on some warm-ups and headed to Amway Center. Facing an Orlando team unlikely to reach the playoffs, the Warriors parlayed a dominant third quarter into a 118-98 rout. Stephen Curry, whose game-high 27 points led six Golden State players in double figures, was free to watch the final 12 minutes from the bench. "For whatever reason, we've had a bunch of really good third quarters in the last couple of weeks," said head coach Steve Kerr, whose team is riding an NBA-best seven-game winning streak. The noon start Sunday, Golden State's earliest tip-off in 22 years, prevented it from holding a morning shootaround or even a team meeting. JaVale McGee, who scored eight of his 13 points in the first quarter, offered a few highlights before Golden State went scoreless for the first 5 minutes, 15 seconds of the second quarter. Orlando, which was without leading scorer Evan Fournier (sore right foot), had little answer as it endured its 10th loss in 13 games.
