Golden State Warriors: 3 significant changes when Stephen Curry returns
By James Siegle
The Golden State Warrriors are hurting without their leader. These three trends will change immediately upon Stephen Curry’s return.
Turns out there’s always one irreplaceable player, regardless of superstar quantity. This is what the Golden State Warriors are finding throughout Stephen Curry‘s latest injury.
The Warriors are 2-4 in this stretch without Curry. They are currently reeling, stuck in a three-game losing streak.
After blazing to a 10-1 start, Golden State lost Steph in a home game against the Milwaukee Bucks. The Dubs lost the game and much more, as the wheels fell off shortly afterwards. Now at 12-6, the Warriors must ask themselves: What would this squad be without Curry?
The following has occurred in six games without Steph:
- A 2-4 record
- Three-game losing streak
- Significant spat between Kevin Durant and Draymond Green
- Media dumpster fire, resulting from the feud
- Team-imposed one-game suspension for Green
- Renewal of KD 2019 free agency rumors
- Blowout loss to the Houston Rockets
The Warriors are better than this. The bottom of the barrel is this moment.
Only Curry can save the Warriors from themselves. These three factors will immediately improve upon his return.
