The Warriors’ defense has been a constant bright spot during their five-game winning streak. Last week, the Warriors held three opponents under 100 points in three consecutive games on the road. The 99 points per game they have allowed are their fewest over a five-game span since January 2022. “We know everything stops and starts with our defense,” Green said. “On the defensive end, we have to make sure teams feel us and let us dictate what we want the offense to do, as opposed to letting them dictate to us. … I think our defense throughout the last six, seven games [has] been constant. In order to continue to get the season where we want it to get — to the playoffs and to try and make a run — that has to be that way.” -via ESPN / April 3, 2024
