As Stephen Curry exited the game for good near the end of the third quarter, with the Boston Celtics up by 32 points on their way to a 40-point blowout victory over the Warriors, Curry probably hadn't felt further away from Golden State's 2022 NBA championship than he did on Monday.

The Golden State Warriors endured one of their more embarrassing losses in the Steve Kerr-Steph Curry era as they fell 125–85 to the Boston Celtics on Monday. The Warriors' 40-point blowout loss at the Chase Center marked the team's worst home loss since 1985, four decades ago.

Monday's Warriors-Celtics game was a matchup of championship-winning rosters who faced off for the NBA title just three seasons ago. Only one team on Monday looked like remotely like a playoff team, much less a title contender in 2025.

Draymond Green is the emotional leader of the Golden State Warriors roster. The veteran forward is relied upon to set a tone, both on the court and in the locker room. His experience as a four-time NBA champion and former Defensive Player of the Year is invaluable;

Jayson Tatum scored 22 points, Kristaps Porzingis had 18 and the Boston Celtics handed the Golden State Warriors their most lopsided home loss in 40 years with a 125-85 victory.

In San Francisco, the first of three stops on a West Coast swing, the Celtics led by 15 at the half and never looked back.
