Last Week: (W) over SAC, (W) over OKC, (L) to MEM, (W) over OKC
The Golden State Warriors had a wild two years in the wilderness, bringing lottery picks in triplicate but also an MVP-campaign from Stephen Curry last year. This season he’s not quite as hot but the Warriors are, winning their first four games and five of six.
Stephen Curry is excellent, Draymond Green has been more aggressive and Andrew Wiggins shook off some early lethargy and was excellent in his most recent game. Head coach Steve Kerr is blessed with a plethora of wing options to mix-and-match from Andre Iguodala to Otto Porter Jr. to Damion Lee and has been switching them around at will.
Scares Me: Facing this team in playoffs with a healthy Klay Thompson. The Warriors are good and plenty dangerous right now, but Klay Thompson is a top-5 all-time shooter and a prolific scorer who should help this team immediately. If the principals are all healthy the Warriors would be a threat to beat anyone, and I would fear them if I was any opponent game planning against them in the playoffs.
