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.

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

In a battle against the defending champs in Golden State, the Celtics routed the Warriors, resulting in a crushing 125-85 final in Boston's favor. The Warriors' 40-point loss was their second biggest of the season, and their 85 points is the lowest mark of their disappointing 2024-25 campaign.

Kerr's Warriors repeated as champions in 2017 and ’18, and no team has done it since. “I wouldn’t worry about the Celtics if I were one of their fans,” Kerr said.

In the marquee matchup of the NBA's Martin Luther King Jr. Day slate, the Celtics blew out the Warriors, 125-85 on Golden State's home court.  The home loss was the worst for Golden State since Steve Kerr took over as head coach in 2014.

As badly as Boston has played over parts of December and January, Kerr downplayed any concern. “I wouldn’t worry about the Celtics if I were one of their fans,” Kerr said. “This is normal.” The Celtics built a first-half lead on the back of their defense Monday before running away from the Golden State Warriors for a 125-85 win.

Steve Kerr offers the Celtics and their fans some advice after their championship run last season. He says it's natural to go into slumps during an 82-game regular season, especially when you are so often playing deep into the postseason.
