MEMPHIS, Tenn. — MVP Stephen Curry scored 21 of his 33 points by halftime, and the Golden State Warriors snapped their two-game skid Monday night by routing the Memphis Grizzlies 101-84 to tie their NBA Western Conference semifinal at 2-2.
The Warriors hadn’t lost three straight games all season, and they never came close as they took back home-court advantage. Curry hadn’t scored more than 23 points in this series, and he nearly had that by halftime.
Draymond Green had 16 points and 10 rebounds for the Warriors, and Klay Thompson had 15 points, Harrison Barnes 12 and Andre Iguodala 11.
Marc Gasol had 19 points and 10 rebounds for Memphis and Zach Randolph had 12 points and 11 rebounds. Mike Conley finished with 10 points and seven assists but was 4-of-15 from the field. Memphis pulled its starters with 3:00 remaining in the game.
Game 5 is Wednesday at Golden State.
