This season, the biggest weakness for the Golden State Warriors has been their form. In one game, they demolish their opponents while in the next, they will lose to a struggling team. Tonight, fans witnessed an example of the latter case.

The Dubs faced off against the Orlando Magic, who were at a lowly 11-18 in the season. However, they still emerged victorious over the Warriors in a 124-120 matchup.

Steph Curry continued his incredible scoring form as he was just one point shy off the 30-point mark in the game.
