The Golden State Warriors are gradually drawing more and more national attention, and we can see this happening on the ground floor on Twitter. Before, during, and after this past Monday’s game against the then-3-and-0 Philadelphia 76ers, we saw these tweets below. Enjoy!
The anticipation of Stephen Curry against previously undefeated rookie sensation Michael Carter-Williams was evident before tipoff…
Battle of the baby faced assassins. Steph Curry v. Michael Carter-Holy Grail. LET'S GO!

Michael Carter-Williams has taken down Derrick Rose and John Wall so far. MCW vs. Steph Curry begins now.

Watching the Warriors play starting at 7ET? Well, alright. #NBALeaguePass

After play began, so did the praise (well, with the exception of Marreese Speights!), especially for Andre Iguodala…
3s are like FT's for the #SplashBrothers .. Can't let them get open.

Bogut brings the ball up, pass to Klay corner, double, pass back to cutting Bogut, kick out to Iguodala spot-up corner. This team, man.

Love Iguodala. Always will. Speights? Um. Not so much.

Should mention that the Dubs are fantastic to watch: Elevator screen and an Iggy alley oop on two consecutive possessions.

Golden State may be my second favorite team in the league.

Klay Thompson locking up Carter-Williams. He really is a great one-on-one defender.

Warriors are doing their best to give the 76ers a #realitycheck tonight

GS is fired up for this game. They're not "coasting."

All it took was Andre Iguodala in the building for Evan Turner to revert to old habits, apparently.

Toney Douglas-Andre Iguodala-Draymond Green is a terrifying defense combination on the wing. Good luck scoring in the halfcourt on them.

I would not be opposed to the Warriors beating the Sixers 135-120 every single night of the season. This game is like speed on crack.

That Iguodala behind-the-back pass tho >>>>>> holy James Naismith that was pretty

Andre Iguodala has tied his career-high for 3-pointers in a game with 6 (game is in 2nd quarter)

Andre Iguodala doing his best Steph Curry. Has a career high 6 threes in the first half.
— chris palmer (@ChrisPalmerNBA) November 5, 2013

Andre Iguodala has 6 three pointers tonight in the first half in Philly. He hit 6 threes in a single game only once as a Sixer in 8 years.

That pass by Iguodala was just not something that normal humans should be able to do

Iggy cookin. #homecoming

Iguodala's career high is 34. He has 27 at halftime. That's… good, I guess.

6/8 from 3 for Iggy. LOL. That's when you just know it is not your day. Sixers can call it a night.
— Nate Jones (@JonesOnTheNBA) November 5, 2013

What did you expect? RT @DarnellMayberry: Warriors-Sixers not exactly what I thought it'd be. Golden State 66, Sixers 42 at the half. Ouch!
— Vincent Goodwill (@vgoodwill) November 5, 2013
//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js
27 Pts in the 1st half for Iguodala. He's scored 23+ just 4 times in the past 2 seasons. Also already has a career-high 6 3Pts.

I don't care how bad the Sixers are. It's weird to see a Warriors team dominate a road game so professionally.

Someone tell me the difference between 72 and 49 and then tell me if it's a lot. It feels like a lot.

Way to ruin the fun, Dubs.

Then there was Curry logging the triple-double…
I'm sorry Cavs and Wolves. I like you and your fans. But I have to see what this Stephen Curry fellow is going to do.

Warriors winning by 35 on one screen, Jarrett Jack just took a long pull up two on the other. Smiling more than you know right now.

Curry w/ 18 pts, 11 asts, 9 rebs and 5 stls… No player has posted a 20-pt, 10-ast, 10-reb, 5-stl line since Baron Davis on 1/12/10 at MEM
