You were locked on Warriors, your daily Golden State Warriors podcast. I'm Daniel, your host,

and so happy to bring you your team every day. The Warriors had a exciting, surprising, intriguing,

113-11 win in Portland against the Blazers in a game Stefan Curry did not play in, a game that

they looked like they had in hand really early, and then

Portland had a huge run. And I wanted to talk about it with Eric Garcia Gunderson. He is

very talented guy, also hosts the Locked-on Blazers podcast. We've done a lot of these

crossovers. I enjoy talking with him. You could also consider him a Warriors' good luck charm,

because I believe the Warriors have won every time we've scheduled to do one of these podcasts, and it looked close late, but the

lucky charm held through. So this is the conversation with Eric. It runs about 28 minutes, I think,

and I hope you'll enjoy it. That was a weird but pretty fun game. Do you agree? Yeah, you know,

no staff in this game, but it was a great game.

I thought it was fun to, it looked like Iguadala was really enjoying the moment of getting a little

bit more time out there. It felt like to me, and it was a great finish to this game. Evan Turner

played really well. I thought it was an entertaining game. And it was fun to see the

Warriors get a little grittier. They certainly had to play a different way to win this game than usual.

And it reminded me a lot of those early games in the second round of the playoffs last year. When

Stephen Curry was still out, he was dealing

with the MCL's brain, and the Warriors just had to, basically they had to win ugly against the

Blazers. And a couple times they did. I believe they also lost once. And it was like that, you know,

I mean, there was that early stretch where when the Warriors went on a big run, and it looked like

maybe they were going to take control, but once Portland had, I think it was a 20 to two run to end the first there was that early stretch where when the Warriors went on a big run and it looked like maybe
