The Golden State Warriors extended their winning streak to two games, recording a 126-113 victory over the New York Knicks on Friday (PH time) at Chase Center. Jimmy Butler III scored a game-high 32 points for the Warriors, who have won their last three meetings against the Knicks dating back to the 2024-25 season.
 
The Warriors outplayed the Knicks in the middle quarters to secure their 15th home win of the season. Golden State outscored New York 32-24 in the second quarter to turn a 30-35 deficit into a 62-59 advantage at the half. The Warriors sustained the momentum in the third quarter, outscoring the Knicks 37-28 during that stretch to build a double-digit edge heading into the final period.

The Warriors never looked back after that, stretching their lead to as many as 17 points in the fourth quarter. Stephen Curry bounced back from his seven-point performance against Portland, dropping 27 markers in the win over the Knicks. He shot 10-for-17 from the field, including 4-of-9 from beyond the arc.
 
OG Anunoby and Miles McBride each scored 25 points for the Knicks, who missed the services of Jalen Brunson due to a sprained right ankle. The Knicks have now lost seven of their last nine games as their overall record fell to 25-16.

After beating the Knicks without Brunson, it feels like the Warriors are as happy as if they had won the championship tonight...

The Warriors now seem to rely solely on their shooting touch. If they can make three-pointers, they win; if not, they lose. Their defense and tactics are completely unclear.
