Golden State Warriors star Steph Curry looks ahead to Wednesday’s matchup against the LA Lakers.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

After losing to the Indiana Pacers on Monday night, the Golden State Warriors have dropped four of their last five games to fall to 15-13 on the season. The Warriors have been utterly disappointing since their blazing 12-3 start, and Monday was no exception.<\/p>\n

Superstar point guard Steph Curry has been oddly inconsistent, dropping just 10 points on 2-13 shooting from the field and 2-9 from deep on Monday. Jonathan Kuminga led the way for Golden State with 26 points and 8 rebounds off the bench, but nobody else seemed to want to step up.<\/p>\n

On paper, there was no reason for the Warriors to lose to the Pacers at home, but that is just how Golden State’s season is going so far.<\/p>\n

Heading into a marquee Christmas Day matchup against the LA Lakers, Curry gave an insight into how both squads desperately need a big holiday win.<\/p>\n

Via Ohm Youngmisuk: “Steph Curry said Christmas showdown between Lakers and Warriors will be a meeting between two team that hoped to be better at this point. ‘Hopefully the Christmas Spirit can bring some gifts (our way).'”<\/p>\n
