#1 The Golden State Warriors (28-29) had won four straight before having played the Boston Celtics (31-26) on Saturday night. The Warriors Stephen Curry left it all out there with 47 points but it wasn’t enough as the Celtics got a 119-114 win to snap the Warriors winning streak.

#2 The Warriors are in ninth place just behind the Memphis Grizzlies for the eighth and final spot for a playoff birth. Knowing how Stephen Curry has been scoring in the 40s and had a 53 point game vs. Denver this month this team could actually push for the last and final eighth spot in the Western Conference.

#3 The Sacramento Kings (22-34) in the middle of a nine game losing streak are in Dallas tonight to face the Mavericks and one of the things they’d like to avoid is continuing this losing streak in double digits.

#4 The Kings have the talent to win ball games but it just seems like they in certain quarters have a let down they’re not a bad team if you look over who they have on the roster but they just are suffering on defense.

#5 Joe talk a little about head coach Luke Walton as you know the Kings organization well if their not happy with the way the team is going the make a coaching change could you see that happening with Walton at the end of the season?
