The Golden State Warriors’ season ended at the bottom of the league due to a season riddled with injury and a number of other factors.

When the NBA announced the season’s return, it was no surprise that the Golden State Warriors were not one of the 22 teams invited to Orlando for the playoffs starting late-July. Before games were suspended in March, saying the Warriors were doing poorly would be an understatement. The Warriors’ season ended at the bottom of the league, with a 15-50 record.

With a record like that, they are nowhere near the requirements needed for a return, as only the 16 teams in playoff positions and the six teams that are six games or less from the eighth seed.

The team’s performance this 2019-2020 season is a huge step down from previous years. They won back-to-back NBA championships in 2017 and 2018. Although the Warriors lost to the Toronto Raptors last year in the finals, they were still division and conference champions.

The Warriors have been building their dynasty for years with superstars like Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, Kevin Durant, Draymond Green, and other All-Stars. Steve Kerr is the head coach of the Warriors, and has a strong resume, having led the modern dynasty through their three championships.

Big changes this past year meant that the Warrior’s season crashed and burned. Leading stars, who are the foundation of the Warriors’ success, were missing from the court and the dynamic of those who filled in for them on the court was amiss.

Although they may be set up well for an exciting season next year, let us review what went wrong this season.
