Curry, Golden State Warriors romp Memphis Grizzlies

For the first time in this series, Steph Curry has looked like an MVP.

Curry scored 33 points with eight rebounds and five assists, and the Warriors took back homecourt advantage with a 101-84 win over the Grizzlies in Monday's Game 4 of this Western Conference semifinal.

The Warriors had dropped two straight in the series since Curry accepted his MVP trophy last Monday. It was just their second two-game losing skid since January.

Curry's poor shooting in those games -- 7-for-19 in Game 2 and 8-for-21 in Game 3 -- was a big reason for Golden State's struggles. But he got back on track in a big way on Monday, and the team bounced back with him.

The Warriors shot 6-for-26 from behind the arc in both of their previous losses. They found the range, finishing 14-for-33 in this one while limiting Memphis to just 4-for-18.

Draymond Green added 16 points and 10 rebounds, and Klay Thompson scored 15 for the Warriors.

Marc Gasol paced the Grizzlies with 19 points, 10 rebounds and six assists in their first home loss of the playoffs.
