6:50 pm
their hottest stars since 2015. and that's because they've been playing team basketball as well as high intensity defense. that's something the head coach steve kerr is talked a lot about and that's what led the warriors to their win against oklahoma city thunder on tuesday night that turned out to be a tougher battle. the warriors may have been expecting. they were down 11 at half. >> but they came on the 3rd quarter and really buckle down on defense. the dup's finished with 36 defensive rebounds. 9 blocks in 8 steals the dubs also have a score to settle in this game tonight the grizzlies eliminating the warriors during the postseason play in tournament last season. so they want to avenge that loss and get this off on the right just don't go stir crazy being at home for 2 straight weeks. that's the main goal. our honestly it's a it's too long of a time to be the only 8 games is a lot so we're going to have to mix it up a little try to keep the players. in a good frame of mind to not get stale. so i'm
6:51 pm
not sure what that means yet, but we'll think of something so we got off to a good start. i always i'm placing. you know, we've got heat. you could keep things a team can go keep going at it. you know, in keeping, you know, winning basketball. >> they get home. stretch. so we've got a chance some special. >> tip-off here at chase center at 7 o'clock, by the way, warriors star steph curry tonight marks the 12th anniversary since his nba debut. if you go on social media, plenty of throwback pictures of the maybe face assassin as he was called back in the day tonight. we saw him warming up and he has not missed a beat. he was sinking logo shots per usual. so will be another exciting night to watch stephan action. it is 12 nba season now we've got to get to another team off to a hot start down in the south bay sports director jason dumas joining us live in the shark tank is i like to say, jason, what's it like down there safety center haven't gotten to experience it yet myself.

6:53 pm
been doing them well now one thing their head coach has said in each of their 2 last losses. they have been tight games their second loss was to the nashville predators. it was a 3 to one game. but it was really only a goal because nashville scored an empty netter late so essentially to one loss. 2 one-goal losses this season and head coach bob has said his team needs to learn how to close out those close games because not everyone is going to be a blowout. our team is is not going to be a team or. >> we're going to out teams on a nightly basis. we have to win the one-goal games. we have brian for points and. you know, so therefore defense is so important. i thought in the first few games. we really defended hard well, and manage the pocket you know, didn't give up a lot. and i think we've got to get back to that. i think at times last couple games, it will spread out and we did manage a pocket as well. and i think you know,
