The Golden State Warriors were taken down in a big way on Thursday night, losing 128-109 to the Oklahoma City Thunder.
While any loss is painful for a team this one was even worse because it was the fifth in a row for the Warriors.
But they are not losing sight of their goals and not giving up hope, according to Moses Moody.
Speaking to the press after the game, via NBC Sports, he said that the team is “still staying afloat” and “charging up” in hopes of winning the next game.

The Warriors have definitely entered a rough patch.
Over the last week, they have lost to the Denver Nuggets, Cleveland Cavaliers, Minnesota Timberwolves twice, and now the Thunder.
And they are set to face the Thunder again on Saturday night.
On Thursday, they were without a few of their biggest stars and that surely hurt them badly.
Stephen Curry was out as he tended to an injury and Draymond Green missed the game because of his five-game suspension.
Jonathan Kuminga led the way for the Warriors and posted 21 points, 6 rebounds, and 2 assists while Chris Paul put up 15 points and 8 assists.
Brandin Podzeimski scored 13 points and 8 rebounds.
Meanwhile, Moody, Andrew Wiggins, and Dario Saric all scored 12 points in an effort to help the team overcome the Thunder.
But they just couldn’t do it and the hard work and speed of Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and his squad were too much.
The Warriors started the season in a strong way and scored five wins in a row.
Now the tables have turned and they have lost five consecutive games.
But Moody says the team is getting fired up and will get back on track.
Fans are hoping they show that on Saturday night.
