SAN FRANCISCO -- Boos rained down on the Golden State Warriors from their home crowd in Chase Center -- a place that was a safe haven for them last season -- all throughout their 141-105 loss to the New Orleans Pelicans :o on Wednesday.
The same thing happened two days before. That time it was on their way to a routing by the Toronto Raptors [133-118].
Two consecutive games in which they got blown out. Two consecutive games in which they never held a lead. Two consecutive games in which their stature got more and more rattled.
...
They blew a 24-point lead to the Sacramento Kings. They blew a 22-point lead to the LA Clippers. They fouled a shooter on the Oklahoma City Thunder in the final seconds of two different games :o to end up with losses. They blew an 18-point fourth-quarter lead to the defending champion Denver Nuggets.
...
In the third quarter, the Warriors trailed [New Orleans] by 41 points.... The 36-point loss is their worst home loss since March 2007...
