OAKLAND, Calif.
Harrison Butker Womens Jersey . -- Golden
State Warriors coach Mark Jackson asked his players a simple question during
Fridays morning shootaround: How many of them had ever been on a team 14 games
over .500? Only veterans Jermaine ONeal, Steve Blake and Andre Iguodala raised
their hands. With so many home games remaining, the opportunity in front of the
Warriors is rare. Golden State took another step forward Friday night by easing
past the Atlanta Hawks 111-97 for its third straight win. "Were chasing
greatness," Jackson said. "Were not going to be satisfied. Were going to
continue to try to chalk up Ws, continue to battle and continue to celebrate
where we are as a basketball team. Its a great time. And if nobody else knows
it, we know it." David Lee had 18 points and six rebounds, and ONeal came off
the bench to add 17 points and eight rebounds to lift the Warriors (39-24) a
season-high 15 games over .500 with a relatively smooth win. Iguodala and
Stephen Curry each scored 13 points to help Golden State build a 66-52 halftime
lead and go ahead by 20 in the fourth quarter. The Warriors, fresh off a 4-2
road trip, are 8-2 since the All-Star break and beginning to look like the team
that roared to the second-round of the playoffs last year. "Ive been 15 under in
New York a bunch of times and when I first got here," Lee said. "It says a lot
about the direction this organizations headed that were breaking through and
reaching goals like that." Paul Millsap had 16 points and seven rebounds after
missing the last five games because of a bruised right knee for the Hawks, who
have lost five straight. Mike Scott added 14 points and DeMarre Carroll and Jeff
Teague scored nine points apiece as Atlanta continued its late-season slide. The
teams traded baskets for most of the first half until the Warriors put together
a 12-1 spurt in the closing minutes that the Hawks (26-34) never recovered from.
"We lost our focus," Atlanta coach Mike Budenholzer said. "We lost our mental
toughness at the end of the second quarter and they were able to get out on us
to like a 14-point lead going into halftime. That stretch really hurt us."
Golden State began a stretch of nine of 11 and 13 of its final 20 games at
Oracle Arena. The Warriors want to use the finishing stretch to re-establish
their home-court advantage and make a run at the Los Angeles Clippers, who are
four games ahead in the Pacific Division. The Warriors, who needed Iguodalas
3-pointer as time expired to beat the Hawks 101-100 in Atlanta on Jan. 3,
allowed little drama in the rematch. Draymond Greens 3-pointer capped a run that
put the Warriors ahead 97-77 with 6:09 remaining in the fourth quarter. The
depleted Hawks, with big men Al Horford and Gustavo Ayon out for the season,
never seriously challenged. The only major setback for the Warriors came when
shooting guard Klay Thompson limped to the locker room six minutes into the
first quarter with a strained lower back. He did not return for precautionary
reasons, the team said. Thompson has been Golden States most durable player the
past three years. He has played in a franchise-record 211 straight
regular-season games to start his career. Jackson said Thompson couldve started
the second half, but there was no reason to with the Warriors in control.
Millsap moved Atlanta within four early in the third quarter, but he had little
help inside. Golden State led 85-77 entering the fourth quarter before pulling
away. "We got away from what weve been doing," Millsap said. "Its kind of tough
to lose that discipline, especially when youre on the road." NOTES: Curry has
made at least one 3-pointer in 51 consecutive games, the longest active streak
in the NBA after Kyle Korvers league-record 127-game streak ended in Atlantas
loss at Portland on Wednesday. Korver was 1-for-5 shooting from beyond the arc
against the Warriors. ... The Hawks play at the Clippers on Saturday night. ...
The Warriors host Phoenix on Sunday.

Jays general manager made a series of bold moves that reshaped the club ahead of
what would turn out to be a disastrous 2013 campaign.Manchester United fans will
be more sympathetic to Wayne Rooneys dip in form than the England supporters who
booed him against Malta, according to Bryan Robson. Rooneys name was jeered by
sections of the crowd when it was announced at Wembley for the World Cup
Qualifier, and further boos rang out when he scuffed a long-range effort wide
late on during Saturdays 2-0 win.The 30-year-old was subsequently dropped for
the goalless draw in Slovenia, having also been sidelined by Jose Mourinho in
recent weeks at Old Trafford. However, former Manchester United captain Robson
expects Rooney to be well received by Red Devils fans if he features in their
Premier League clash with Liverpool on Monday Night Football, live on Sky Sports

United fans will show him the love and respect he deserves, Robson told The
Sun.Waynes always given everything for England - just as he has always done for
United - and that should always be appreciated.He doesnt deserve to be booed
like he was against Malta and one thing I do know is that the United supporters
will stick by him. Wayne will know that the next time he pulls on a United shirt
the fans will be right behind him - as they should be.Some England fans seem to
forget what he has done for his country for years now. They forget that he is
our record scorer, that he is the most-capped outfield player.
