Game No. 57 — Clippers 118, Warriors 105: Eric Gordon illustrates the Warriors’ agonizingly slow learning curve

48minutes.netBaron Davis going off for 25 points against his most recent former team is shockingly predictable.
Eric Gordon going off for 27 points against the same squad is just plain shocking.
The Warriors’ 118-105 loss to the Clippers on Monday was, to my recollection, one of the Warriors’ worst performances of the season in terms of simply losing vision and letting guys run free on the perimeter. Rock-bottom in that category for Golden State was the 119-114 loss in Utah on Dec. 5, when Ronnie Brewer and C.J. Miles just kept slipping away from the Warriors’ Club Fed-style defensive presence and scoring uncontested layups.
When Davis hits a step-back 26-footer, or banks in a triple, there isn’t much to be done about that. You shrug your shoulders and move on. But what Gordon did to the Warriors – 27 points, five assists, seven rebounds – can’t be so casually explained away.
