Edit|Old Kankanqiu

On November 13, the NBA 2025-26 regular season ushered in the focus of the Western Conference. The San Antonio Spurs sat at home and faced the Golden State Warriors. What is surprising is that the Warriors have played a very fragmented record so far this season. Since winning the first away game, they have suffered six consecutive away defeats. Compared with the 5 wins and 0 losses at home, it is indeed very fragmented. The title of "Dragon at Home and Worm on the Road" is well deserved. The most difficult thing to accept is Curry's condition. He struggled too much after falling ill.

In comparison, the Spurs are in the spotlight this season. The team had a perfect start with 8 wins and 2 losses, and currently has 3 consecutive wins and ranks second in the Western Conference, which is really surprising. Wenbanyama has evolved again. As long as there are no injuries, he will be a promising star in the future.

Before the game, US media ESPN predicted the real-time winning rate of this game. The Warriors' winning rate was only 37.7%, while the Spurs' winning rate was as high as 62.3%. The difference is obvious. In today's game, in terms of the starting lineup, for the Warriors, Curry continues to play back-to-back games with illness. The latest starting five that Cole temporarily changed are: Stephen Curry, Moses Moody, Will Richard, Jimmy Butler and Draymond Green; for the Spurs, the starting lineup is: De'Aaron Fox, Stephen Castle, Devin Vassell, Harrison Barnes and Victor Vunbanyama.

At the beginning of the first quarter, the Wenban Yamas grabbed an offensive rebound, turned around and scored an easy layup, and the Spurs took the lead. Green dealt the card at the top of the arc, assisted Murray and made a solid three-pointer, and immediately returned the favor. Wenbanyama's breakthrough attracted three double-teams, and Barnes hit a three-pointer. The latter scored 8 points in a row at the beginning. Castle jumped high to meet Kuminga's tip-in and scored again. The Spurs led to 8 points. Curry dribbled back and missed a three-point shot. The Warriors have not scored for more than 4 minutes and are currently only 5 of 18 shots.

Bo James finally hit a three-pointer after catching the ball in the corner, breaking the Warriors' scoring drought in the past three minutes. The team is currently 5 of 21 three-pointers. Castle made an emergency throw and scored a foul on Curry. Moody changed direction and accelerated his breakthrough to complete a one-arm split dunk. He responded immediately and scored 11 points in a single quarter. Castle turned Curry and easily scored in a layup. Wenbanyama threw a high throw from the top of the arc to assist.

Change sides and fight again. Vassell caught the ball in the corner and hit Curry for a three-pointer. The Spurs regained the lead to 10 points. Curry hit two consecutive three-pointers from the outside to stop the bleeding in time. Green made an air cut to catch the ball and was unguarded, but missed the empty basket. This is really one of the top ten embarrassing moments today. Curry broke through and made a layup, causing another foul on Castle. The latter had committed 4 fouls and had no choice but to leave the game. Curry made two free throws and scored 30 points. Curry made a quick stop and hit a three-pointer.
