Paint Pounding – The Warriors are known for their 3-point shooting prowess, but it was their game in the paint that was impressive Tuesday. David Lee scored 21 points with 17 rebounds as the Warriors outrebounded the Pelicans 58-44 and outscored them in the paint 50-34. Stephen Curry led the team with 28 points, 12 assists and three steals. The Pelicans got 21 from Ryan Anderson and shot just 37.5 percent as a team.
