The Golden State Warriors suffered a 124-119 overtime loss to the Clippers, likened by Stephen Curry to a virtual Game 7. Coach Steve Kerr, however, emphasized that this was just an initial opportunity among three for securing a playoff spot. They'll now face the struggling Memphis Grizzlies in a No. 7-8 play-in game at Chase Center. The matchup revives memories of their past playoffs, with recent changes in coaching for Memphis affecting performance. Although the Warriors are 0-3 in play-in games historically, they hope to turn the tide in this crucial game.
"While Stephen Curry compared the match to a Game 7, Steve Kerr recognized it merely as the first of three opportunities for a playoff berth."
"With a victory, the Warriors would secure a much-needed week off; however, their loss brings a second chance against Memphis that they must capitalize on."
