Summary

The Warriors topped the Wizards led by Kevin Durant's 32 points. Klay Thompson held Bradley Beal in check, Steph Curry hit threes, and Draymond Green was everywhere. The only nitpick: 18 offensive rebounds for Washington. Other than that, the Dubs held it down. Their defense was sound (held the Wiz to 40% shooting), they took care of the ball (15 turnovers), and the offense was humming (51%, 42% from three) for the most part of the evening. For Throwback Thursday, we take a look at the 2015 Finals, where Stephen Curry was very good but could not pull momentum away from LeBron to win his first Finals MVP. That award instead went to Andre Iguodala, who changed the series when he was inserted into the starting lineup in Game 4. Aliko posits that Steph's entire 2015-16 MVP campaign may have been in response to that "snub," (as well as the NBA players voting James Harden their MVP that year). Lastly, Curry used his trip to Atlanta to be a part of Kaiser Permanente's NBA Total Health Forum. The event is part of efforts by Kaiser and the NBA to promote healthy minds, bodies and spirits. Curry is also doing his part to reduce the stigma of mental illness. Kevin Durant also made news this week by giving $10 million to College Track to empower students from his hometown of Seat Pleasant, MD. The Warriors are walking the walk.

0:29.7	Greetings, oops heads, welcome to Locked-on Warriors, part of the Locked-on Podcast Network.
0:33.8	It's Thursday, March 1st.
0:35.5	I'm your host, Aliko Carter.
0:40.1	Apologies for the late pod today. It's been a busy day. Been all around the place and out in that rain, I hope y'all are enjoying it. It seems like,
0:45.5	at least for Northern California, the drought is lessening. So that's good for us, though it doesn't
0:51.3	really make for fun going outside. Another dub for the dubs last night.
0:55.9	A great win in Washington, D.C.
0:58.4	Kevin Durant with 32 big points.
1:00.2	Stefan Curry added 25, and we'll get to that in the first segment.
1:03.7	In the second segment, we're going to go back in time.
1:06.5	And we're going to look at Stefan Curry's numbers from the 2015 finals,
1:10.0	because to be honest, I just
1:12.5	think he really gets overlooked. I'm one of those people who thought he deserved to get the
1:16.5	finals MVP over Andre Igadala. In 2015, he was the best player on the team that won. And, you know,
1:23.7	Andre held LeBron to a near triple double, but, and of course changed the whole series
1:30.0	when he was inserted into the starting lineup in game four.
1:33.3	But Stefan Curry does everything for the Warriors
1:37.2	and the whole system is built around him.
1:38.7	So we're going to go back in time and look at that series
1:40.7	and just look at though, even though he wasn't transcendent, we're going to look at how
