The Golden State Warriors next game schedule is to play against Portland Trail Blazers in the NBA Playoffs on 24th April at Moda Center. The Warriors won 128-103. The Blazers dropped the first two games of the series by double-digits at Oracle Arena, and they couldn't protect their home-court in Game 3, despite holding a 16-point second-half lead when the Warriors didn't have their head coach or their best player.
Moments before the Trail Blazers tipped off against the Warriors in Game 4 of their first-round playoff series Monday, Portland's Twitter account signaled the unlikelihood of the team coming back from a 3-0 deficit by tweeting, "Pride starts now". That was Portland's final stand, and I fully expect the Warriors to win convincingly tonight.
Klay Thompson had 18 points for the Warriors, who will take on either the Los Angeles Clippers or Utah Jazz in the Western Conference semifinals.
The Warriors managed the win in Game 3 without Kevin Durant or Steve Kerr. Last season's Coach of the Year missed the first 43 games of the 2015-2016 season with symptoms that resulted from complications with his back surgery.
The Hawks, on the other hand, got a team effort all around and have plenty to build on moving into Game 5.

And the president's promise to repeal and replace Obamacare has taken a back seat to the effort to avert a government shutdown . In a tweet on Saturday, Trump promised that a "Big TAX REFORM AND TAX REDUCTION will be announced next Wednesday".
Nurkic missed the final seven games of the regular season but returned to take part in pre-game warmups in the final few games - leading to speculation that he could return for the playoffs. So as of now, I'm consulting with my doctors, hoping for some improvement and if I get improvement, I'll get back on the sidelines.
"I'm not going to go into details on the symptoms. We were slow to react and couldn't get it going". You can tell he's kind of forcing his way to be around. They now know they can play with this team and put up a fight. They simply have too much firepower for the Blazers to match for 48 minutes. "That's how unselfish he is".
Quotable: "I'm not just saying this because I'm here, but the culture here, the foundation that Steve laid". Curry swished a 31-foot 3-pointer that made it 104-77 late in the third quarter and the Blazers couldn't catch up.
"He didn't do any further damage", Trail Blazers head coach Terry Stotts said, per the Oregonian's Mike Richman. He was named the league's Coach of the Year in 2009 when Cleveland finished with 66 wins. Brown said beforehand he expected Kerr would be watching from the locker room. The players are smart. "I understand that's what it is", Lillard said Monday night. "So, from that standpoint, everybody made it rather easy for me to make the adjustment".
Curry said the performance should be a blueprint for the rest of the playoffs.
