Green, who returned to the lineup after serving a five-game suspension for headbutting Minnesota Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert, picked up four personal fouls and one technical foul against the Kings. Curry said Green’s technical foul was a “stupid” technical foul given by the referee. However, he wants Green to focus more. The Warriors led the Kings with 24 points.

Golden State is now 8-10 on the season. “My experience in this league: You have one undefeated game a year when you go into the locker room and you can’t believe you just lost a game,” Warriors coach Steve Kerr said. “Last year we had one of those in Utah. So it seemed. … We are not in free fall. It’s the beginning of the season. We lose a bunch of tight games. You can see it on tape every game. Dirt and circles. I can only say this so many times.

Atlanta Braves GM Alex Anthopoulos may have a few tricks up his sleeve. He has done a great job of rounding out the roster and strengthening a bullpen that is already in a better place than last year. Anthopoulos also brought back Charlie Morton, and the club is in a similar situation to last year, out of the starting lineup. There is a hole in left field and many fans would like a more reliable arm in the rotation, but the Braves are primed for another run in the postseason as they are currently built.
