    This game was absolutely awful. Ultimately got the win but jesus, one of the uglier games I can remember.

    Positives:
    - We won on the road and despite 2/14 shooting from Curry, 2/16 from Lee and 6/16 from Klay.
    - Bogut looked good and quite impactful in limited minutes.
    - Bench was great and won us this game.
    - I thought Barnes looked ok with the start. After starting at the beginning of each half he never re-entered later in either half. Slashed to the rim a few times and didn't get burned on defense, had some nice rebounds. Flubbed a reverse dunk. All in all not bad from a 20 year old rookie.
    - Curry's ankle didn't explode.
    - Ended up winning the rebound battle.

    Negatives:
    - MJax continues to be unimpressive. Seems stubborn/stupid about running plays for Steph, Klay, or Bogut when needed. Went small when he didn't have to.
    - Looked very sloppy and much softer and less energetic than the Suns.
    - Horrid attempt to close the game. Curry 0-2 FTs.

    In the end we got a road win despite godawful shooting from our top scorers. Can't wait to see more Bogut.
