Warriors re-establish home-court advantage in dominant homestand, setting foundation for tougher road ahead

Golden State has the NBA's best record, but the real test is about to begin
SAN FRANCISCO -- Steph Curry in MVP form. Draymond Green and Andre Iguodala throwing down breakaway dunks. Devastating third-quarter runs that debilitate the opponent while driving the Bay Area fans into a frenzy. If you squint with a reasonable amount of force, you might just mistake this season's version of the Golden State Warriors for the 2014-15 bunch that announced themselves to the basketball world with an NBA title.
But no matter how raucous the Chase Center crowd gets and how fun the atmosphere becomes, make sure you keep the Oracle Arena comparisons out of your mouth.
"It's an unfair comparison to Oracle, honestly," Curry said earlier this week. "We're trying to put ourselves in position where we're winning games, protecting home court, where we can develop a new identity of what this building means in terms of home-court advantage. We had three championships in that building. We want to try to get one in here, but it's a work in progress."
