Warriors 126, 76ers 86:
Marreese Speights scored 23 points and Klay Thompson had 14 as host Golden State had little trouble dispatching Philadelphia.

Leandro Barbosa scored a season-high 17 points in 17 minutes off the bench and Stephen Curry collected 13 points and nine assists for the Warriors, who have taken the first two of a six-game homestand. Draymond Green filled the box score with 10 points, 10 rebounds, four steals and three blocks while David Lee scored 13 for Golden State.

The NBA-best Warriors wasted little time pulling away from the NBA-worst 76ers, getting nine straight points from Thompson during an 11-0 run that erased a 6-0 deficit to start the game. Curry’s 3-pointer made it a 25-14 gap and Golden State led by 15 points by the end of the first quarter.

Justin Holiday’s 3-pointer increased the lead to 42-19 under three minutes into the second and the Warriors coasted into the break with a 61-34 advantage. Curry and Andre Iguodala each buried a 3-pointer in a 20-6 run that pushed the lead to 85-49 late in the third, and Golden State’s bench kept its foot on the gas the rest of the way.

GAME NOTEBOOK: The Warriors totaled 38 assists on 46 made field-goals, marking the NBA-best 10th time they have reached at least 30 this season. … The 76ers fell to 2-3 on their seven-game road trip after winning the first two stops. … Golden State enjoyed its largest lead of the season at 126-79 with 1:07 left and totaled an NBA season-best 19 steals.
