The Warriors do not exactly project the image of a grinding, get-your-hands-dirty team. Not with Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson raining majestic three-point shots. [...] Golden State survived Tuesday night's scare against Philadelphia by cranking up its defense in the fourth quarter. Head coach Steve Kerr was encouraged by the way his team scraped out a 106-104 victory, because he knows the offense isn't the same without injured forward Kevin Durant. The 76ers scored 90 points in the first three quarters, but then Green cranked up the intensity - and Philadelphia managed only 14 points in the fourth quarter. "I thought Draymond picking up (T.J.) McConnell full court a couple times early in the fourth quarter set a different tone," Kerr said.
