Steve Kerr‘s contemplated lineup change did not materialize against the Oklahoma City Thunder, but after a disheartening 138-136 overtime loss, adjustments seem imminent for the struggling Golden State Warriors.
The defeat highlighted recurring issues, notably turnovers and defensive lapses leading to excessive fouls. The Warriors committed a staggering 29 turnovers, the highest this season and unprecedented in the Kerr era, revealing persistent carelessness and miscommunication.

“Turnovers and fouls. I can just repeat it every game if you want,” Kerr said. “It’s turnovers and fouls, that’s what it comes down to.”
Despite a strong performance in three-point shooting, dominance on the offensive glass, and multiple players scoring in double figures, Golden State couldn’t overcome their defensive shortcomings.
Couldn’t contain Thunder stars
Facing an aggressive Thunder offense, the Warriors allowed 36 free throws, showcasing their vulnerability in point-of-attack defense. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Jalen Williams capitalized on this weakness, drawing 21 of the 28 fouls against the Warriors.
“The fact is we’re playing one of the best teams in the league on their floor,” he added.

“We’re good enough. We’re good enough to win a championship-I believe that.
“This team. But if we’re gonna just turn it over and throw the ball to the other and foul over and over, we’re gonna lose. We know the formula. We just controlled that whole game on the road against a great team.”
