The Golden State Warriors had a, relatively, easy wire-to-wire victory over the Chicago Bulls. Here are four noteworthy moments from that win.

The Golden State Warriors don’t like losing back-to-back games in the regular season. Whenever they fall, they pick themselves right back up. They have too much pride to let themselves start a losing streak and they make sure that they get back on track.

The Dubs lost to the Sacramento Kings in an overtime heartbreaker. Steve Kerr was ejected, Stephen Curry missed the game-winning layup, and Draymond Green and Kevin Durant were yelling at each other on the sideline. Overall, it was a mess.

Things happen and you have bad games. What matters most is how the team responds and the Warriors do it well. They come back after losses and win, generally in emphatic fashion.

The task at hand wasn’t too difficult for the Warriors. They were facing a depleted Chicago Bulls team that, at full-strength, has struggled. Without Jimmy Butler and Dwyane Wade, they team didn’t really have a chance.

Golden State cruised to a 123-92 victory. They never exploded like they normally do, but it was a steady attack that proved to be too much for the Chicago’s shorthanded squad. They were, mostly, disinterested because, to be honest, there was no real reason for them to exert a lot of effort.

Nonetheless, the Golden State Warriors make highlights even when they’re bored. Something noteworthy always happens and, while generally it’s good, sometimes bad happens too (more on that soon). It’s must-see TV always.

Here are four moments that stood out during the Warriors’ big win over the Chicago Bulls.
