Time now to check in with the National Basketball Association, which has been playing for, I don't know, a month or so already, even though we're still a day away from Halloween.
Speaking of which, is the NBA still this scary place where everyone already knows the Golden State Warriors are going to win again, even though we're still a day away from Halloween and approximately a century from the NBA Finals?
You'll be horrified to know the answer is "Yes"!
When last seen, after all, the Warriors were still the Warriors, and had not morphed into the Anaheim Amigos or Dallas Chaparrals. They were, in fact, laying almighty wood to the hapless Chicago Bulls, who are one of many Happlesses in the NBA, especially when they play the Warriors.
Anyway, the final score was 149-124 in favor of the Warriors. The winners had 92 points at halftime. They were so Warriors-y, in fact, that Klay Thompson scored 52 points all by himself, hitting a record 14 3-pointers. He did this in just 27 minutes, or three minutes more than a half. And he did this just four days after his backcourt mate, Steph Curry, went off for 51 points and 11 triples in three quarters in a 144-122 beatdown of the hapless Washington Wizards.
In other words, in just those two games, days apart, the Warriors averaged 146.5 points and Curry and Thompson combined for 103 points and 24 threes in just 64 minutes.
So ... yeah. Nothin' new to see here, apparently.
In which case, tune in for our next Association update in, I don't know, 2020 or so.
