The Golden State Warriors have had many record-breaking milestones this season and Monday night was no different rolling to a 97-87 victory over the New Orleans Pelicans and their 125th consecutive sellout to a crowd of 15,596.
Klay Thompson was the leading scorer with 26 points and Stephen Curry had 22. Anthony Davis led the Pelicans with 26 and Eric Gordon with 23.
Warriors head coach Steve Kerr was pleased with the way his team played offensively and defensively but said his team needed to get better at decision making.
It would be the first time in 26-years that the Warriors are 2-0 in a W. Conference playoff series. They are now 40-2 at home. Golden State scored under 100-points for only the second time this season and Draymond Green tallied his second straight double-double with 14-points and 12 rebounds. With his one blocked shot tonight he has 25 blocks for his playoff career tying former Warriors player Joe Barry Carrol for 7th on the franchise's all-time playoff blocks list.
Both teams will have some time to rest before Game 3 Thursday in New Orleans.
NOTES: TRhe Santa Cruz Warriors won Game 3 of their W. Conference Finals match up against the Austin Spurs 97-83.
