klay thompson is in good spirits. of course, he will miss the next couple of weeks. as we take a look at the video here, it's been quite a past few days surrounding the golden state warriors. sunday steph, he sprained his knee. he will be out at least two weeks. on monday the warriors' possible next round opponent, the l.a. clippers lost their best two players to injury. chris paul and blake griffin. now, yesterday a good day around here. steve kerr named the coach of the year. assistant luke walton eighth despite officially registering zero wins. and tonight a chance to wrap up their series with houston in game five. and we have a little bulletin board material courtesy of rockets veteran guard jason terry. here's what he said. quote, that's going to be a long flight home for them to come back to houston. it's going to be a nice flight home for us when we get the win. i am guaranteeing it. now, the two warriors that we spoke toed clearly not amused -- spoke toed, clearly not amused. >> good for him. i mean, see what happens. you know, i am not going to make any stat

klay thompson seventh. strength in numbers without their mvp the warriors blowout houston 121-94 with a 3-1 lead. they can wrap up the series wednesday at home. mike shumann has more from the toyota center. >> steph will not be available for game five. an mri tomorrow afternoon and we'll know a lot more, sprained mcl and warriors did not want to confirm but tough duty moving forward without steph curry. >> he still wanted to play. and we wouldn't let him and he was -- you saw i'm sure he was very, very upset. >> you hate to see steph get hurt on something like the wet spot on the court. >> definitely sucks and pray he's okay because we're definitely going to need him. >> reporting in houston, mike shumann, abc 7 sports. >>> only a power outage could slow down the spurs and memphis. lead with 21 points. the spurs up by two at the half but like the warriors, took control in the third. danny green with the steal. the short-handed grizzlies no match for san antonio. tim duncan turns 40 tomorrow. the spurs win 1

klay thompson with 34 so it was a performance up and down the roster for the warriors on a night and they knew they needed that and that was something that steve kerr was very proud of after the game. >> obviously when you lose the mvp you've got a concern, but we do believe in our depth. and in our ability to win when we're down a man even if it is steph. i'm very pleased with the effort. obviously with the outcome. and we had a lot of guys step up and play extremely well. and for the most part, i thought the efforts was fantastic. >> reporter: so they strategized and came out exactly the way they hoped. figured you can beat the rockets without steph curry, go down to houston 2-0 and have a chance to have a 100% healthy curry because of the fact that the warriors goal as we said, win 16 games and go back to back, they now have 14 to go to accomplish that goal. hopefully two more full days of rest for steph curry for game three in houston. it's a late-night here tonight, mark. they just opened up the locker rooms, we're going to see what we can get for tomorrow. until then, live from

very cool about trace thompson and klay thompson as well. >> that is really cool. of course he will be watching. you could feel the pain, though. >> a programming night due to tonight's giants game, some of your favorite shows on nbc, "caught on camera" on comcast. >> see you tonight at 11:00. >> enjoy the the game. we'll send it over to john miller and mike krukow.

klay thompson said all the team with 27 points. shawn livingston added 16 points. joining us this morning, matt steinmetz. i don't want to talk statistics too much. we'll mention one that stood out for me. the rockets had 16 assists. warriors had 30. just says a lot to me about the team, sharing the ball. >> no doubt about it. if you look at james harden and steph curry, i know curry didn't play but they're two kinds of superstars. harden does a lot on his own. that's why the houston assist total is down. the warriors' offense is predicated on ball movement and passing so everybody touches it on the golden state warriors and that's why they had so many assists this year they led the league. >> as the warriors get deeper in to these playoffs, they're not going to come up on the houston rockets. they're going to come up on team basketball. it seems like yesterday it was the houston hardens. but they're going to come up on teams that share the ball. >> i think there's a little bit of a danger to read too much in to the series against the rockets. they were really in d

the warriors set a playoff record with 21 3s, draymond green has four, klay thompson with seven. you can see steph -- that limp does not look good. more on his condition in a second. the warriors win 121, 94. take a 3-1 series lead with game five on wednesday at oracle. mike shumann is live now from the toyota center. shu, what more do we know about steph's injury? just looking at it's moment ago, it did not look good. >> well, if it weren't for bad luck, wouldn't have any luck at all, and the warriors do not want to confirm the sprained mcl until after the mri tomorrow, which is understandable. the way he limped out of here, doesn't look like he's going to be ready to go. won't be able to go in game five, and steve kerr said he wasserring on the side of caution. >> still wanted to play. and we wouldn't let him, and he was -- you saw. he was very, very upset. >> we have had this experience during the season, missing different guys at different times. steph is a whole different kettle of fitch but you have to move -- kettle of fish put you have to move the ball. >> you hate to see

houston, playing up on klay thompson. the other splash brother. the warriors up 8 at the half. no steph. the playing field kind of leveled in this game. third quarter. a 9-1 houston run. dwight howard. 71-67. the fourth quarter. the rockets within three. an 11-1 warriors run. high off the glass. livingston, 16. a minute later, draymond abusing his defense. 101-90 warriors. klay goes for 34. the warriors going to 115-96. we'll see how he responds. being up 2-0 does give us a little more cushion. it will be based on his health. not a serious score. a chance for the lead when it shifts thursday night. that will be a big decision. when consultant josh atkins books at laquinta.com. he gets a ready for you alert the second his room is ready. so he knows exactly when he can settle in and think big. and when josh thinks big you know what he gives? i'll give you everything i've got and then some... he gives a hundred and ten percent! i'm confident this 10% can boost your market share. look at that pie chart! boom! you've never seen a number like that! you feel me lois? i'm feeling you.

as did klay thompson. the rockets win it 97-96 is. the warriors still have a 2-1 series lead with game four on sunday here on abc7. >> i was awful the whole game. i care about the turnover, but i don't feel it cost us. i cost us the game. >> we have to play better as a team. whether steph is here or not, we should perform at a high level which we did for much of the game. we have to eliminate some of the mistakes we made. >> and steph should be back for game four on sunday. who is the best pitcher in the game? the answer is jake from the cubs who threw a no hitter. he threw a no-no against the reds and struck out sikh. he gets suarez for the final out here. 16-0 cubs the final. his second career no hitter. he didn't really have his best stuff. a's and yankees. young man that is a lot of cotton candy for one little dude. they call the curve ball uncle charlie. seventh inning and tied at two. chris davis and coco crisp. back to back jacks. he gave up a run. he gave up two in a flash. a's they sweep the yankees in new york 7-3 and they h

klay thompson buried seven and they took a 3-1 lead over the rockets. today steph's teammates will move on for now without him. >> there is definitely added responsibility. everybody is add -- added responsibility. 24r* is definitely added responsibility for everyone. >> we feel good because we had this experience before. it was in the regular season and we want to build on the momentum. >> we believe in that and hope everybody else will believe in the strength in numbers. we say it for a purpose and that's what is hard to use it. >> giants hosting the padres and with a win the g men won back to back series after losing eight of 10 games. ciedo snags his 100th career victory and a shutout. note to all of you gentlemen out there. this is how you impress your date. catch the foul ball and hand it to her and a little kiss, very smooth. cuedo gets him to ground out to an inning ending double play. the umpire said he was safe at first. giants challenged and the play is overturned and still no score. crushes this ball. looks like it is going out and somehow i

and klay thompson leads the team with 34 points, and shaun livingston started in place of curry, and had 16 points, lawyers, 115-106. >> we had to pick up the play, and we had to put on the realm because we of some great offensive rebounds, and we know something good will happen.>> will see how he responds in the next few days, and obviously, being up 20 gives us more christian, but it will be based on his health, not the score.>> and andre had a great game last night.>>> in the series would move to houston for game three, on thursday, and game four on sunday, and game five back here in oakland one week from tomorrow. >>> the sharks first-round playoffs, drops the game in overtime. and pumping up the crowd, and a good way to get the ball rolling out the door. scoring 30 seconds after the opening, and that was about the only scoring the sharks did, and the kings tidied up, and the sharks had five power-play chances, but could not convert. the game remained in 1-1 until overtime, and the kings get the to-one victory. game for tomorrow night, game friday for game five, and game six is i

disheses to klay thompson for the easy dunk, nine-point warriors lead and then steph weaves through traffic and lays it in. steph has 35. 24 in the second half, and the warriors are up four in the fourth quarter. hopefully have the victory for you at 9:00 and 11:00. >> jordan spieth trying to become theorth player to win back-to-back masters and say the tournament doesn't start until sunday and that was true today as spieth with an epic meltdown. memorable day. davis love iii it's the hole. now louis oosthuizen's ball hits his partner's ball and goes in for the third hole-in-one of the day. first time it's ever happened at themastes. danny willett, birdie on 13, 3-under. jordan spieth, ends the front nine with four straight birds including here on nine. had five-streak lead. will lt., birdies 14. quietly 4-under, one back of spot after he bogeys 10 and 11. 6-over on three holes. willett, birdies 16 to get do 5 under. final reasonable 67. now he has to wait. spieth not done. birdies on the two par-5s. only two back. here on 16 for bibs and it's over. a very unlike-spieth momentdown, danny wi
