Summary

The Warriors didn't have enough firepower without their four All-Stars to take it to the Spurs last evening. They only put up 12 points in the fourth quarter, while giving up 28, and were no match for LaMarcus Aldridge's onslaught (33 points on 22 shots, 12 boards). Quinn Cook had another 20 point outing but was inefficient, and Nick Young didn't make any of his 5 three-point attempts. Draymond Green left the game early with a contusion in his pelvic area. Quinn Cook has been doing his very best Stephen Curry impression over the last few games, including going 5-7 from three against the Kings and against the Suns. Though he had 4 turnovers against the Spurs, he played well in 38 minutes. His Player Impact Estimate from the game against the Kings (22.7) shows how integral he was in that game despite the loss. So Quinn Cook is my Warrior of the Week. Around the NBA, the East has become an internal struggle for playoff seeding, with Detroit falling out of the playoff race over the last few weeks. Toronto is within a half game of the Warriors for the second-best record in the league behind Houston, which faces Portland tonight in a must-watch for Dubs fans. The bottom half of the West playoff bracket has a number of teams that could give GSW trouble in the first round. Which is the best matchup out of the bunch? Learn more about your ad choices.

0:00.0	Greetings, Hoops Heads, welcome to Lockdown Warriors, part of the Lockdown Podcast Network.
0:24.4	It's Tuesday, March 20th. I'm your host, Aliko Carter. Tough game to watch last night, Warriors
0:30.5	only put up 12 in the fourth quarter for a total of 75, lost by 14 to the San Antonio Spurs.
0:37.4	And it's going to be like this in this period of time where the Warriors don't have
0:41.1	their stars.
0:41.9	But good news, Seth and Curry will try to return on Friday, nursing that right ankle injury.
0:49.0	And it's a nice little four-game homestand for the Warriors.
0:51.7	Their last nine games of the year starts Friday with Atlanta,
0:56.6	and then Sunday, Utah, Tuesday, Indiana, who the Warriors are playing twice in the last seven games,
1:02.7	and then Thursday, March 29th, it's the Milwaukee Bugs. Good show for you today. We're going to do
1:08.3	our recap of the game against the Spurs in the first segment.
1:12.4	In the second segment, I'll be focusing on Quinn Cook, my Warrior of the week, and in the third
1:16.9	segment, we'll go around the NBA. We'll declare some playoff narratives dead. I will declare
1:22.6	already that the warrior's pursuit of the one seed is dead. It's D-E-A-D-D. The Warriors will most likely
1:31.0	have the second seed in the Western Conference in the playoffs, and that's okay.
1:36.0	Having a higher seed than whatever Eastern Conference team ends up coming out of the East
1:40.7	would be nice, though. We'll get to all that and more, but first I want to tell you about this podcast.
