Warriors sink Nets to reach 22-0

Stephen Curry scored 11 of his 28 points in the final 2:10 of the third quarter, and the Golden State Warriors remained perfect on the season with a 114-98 win over Brooklyn Sunday.

Klay Thompson tallied 21 points and combined with Curry to shoot 19-for-35 overall and 8-for-19 from beyond the arc for the Warriors, who ran their NBA record start to 22-0.

The Warriors won their 26th consecutive regular-season game dating to April 9 and improved to 12-0 on the road. They outworked the host Nets at the start and at the finish when it counted the most.

“One of our biggest strengths is we are never out of the game and we are always one big run from putting the game away,” said interim coach Luke Walton.

Draymond Green finished with 22 points, nine rebounds and seven assists for the Warriors.

Thaddeus Young scored 25 points and Brook Lopez added 18 for Brooklyn, which lost by eight in overtime on November 14 at Golden State after Lopez missed a potential game-winner in regulation.

Elsewhere, it was: Grizzlies 95, Suns 93; Pistons 111, Lakers 91; Mavericks 116, Wizards 104; and Thunder 98, Kings 95.
