The opposition was without Giannis Antetokounmpo due to left knee soreness, but Golden State failed to match the shorthanded Bucks&#8217; intensity.<\/p>\n<p>Warriors All-Star Jimmy Butler acknowledged that the loss was not what the team had hoped for and provided a simple way for the group to get back on track.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGet back to winning and it\u2019ll be flowers and daisies in no time,\u201d Butler told ESPN\u2019s Anthony Slater.<\/p>\n<p>Butler, Stephen Curry, and Jonathan Kuminga all scored more than 20 points, but Milwaukee played a tighter overall game.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt looked to me like fatigue,\u201d Warriors head coach Steve Kerr told Nick Friedell of The Athletic. \u201cMental, physical fatigue. It did not look like our team out there. Our spacing was bad. It didn\u2019t feel like we had our usual pop. I thought Milwaukee was brilliant.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Bucks guard Ryan Rollins was particularly effective. The 23-year-old dropped a career-high 32 points as well as eight assists. He was 13-of-21 from the field and 5-of-7 from range in the winning effort.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWatching him on film before tonight, you see he\u2019s being very calculated on how to use his speed and create space and get downhill,\u201d Curry told Eric Nehm of The Athletic. \u201cShooting shots when he\u2019s open. It seems like the game has slowed down enough when he\u2019s making proper reads.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou obviously saw it tonight, he played fearless out there \u2026 I\u2019m happy for him, but I\u2019m also pissed off.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Warriors are now 4-2 on the season. They will look to bounce back when they face the Pacers in Indiana on Saturday.<\/p>\n<\/article>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Golden State Warriors All-Star Jimmy Butler explained how the team can recover after a draining loss to the Milwaukee Bucks.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":116165,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[10,146,45,11,96],"class_list":["post-116164","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-nba","tag-golden-state-warriors","tag-jimmy-butler","tag-nba","tag-stephen-curry","tag-steve-kerr"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>BAY RECKONING MODE: The loss to the Bucks stung, but Jimmy Butler stood in the Warriors\u2019 storm and dropped a line that screamed grit \u2014 \u201cflowers and daisies come after the dirt,\u201d turning pain into fuel instead of panic.
