How bad are they right now? Lost by 20 to Indy and 40 to Utah. Are they legit threats to lose in in first round? Or will they flip the switch this weekend? This is getting interesting.
Warriors aren’t even trying. They’re a different team in the next few days. Need Steph back sooner rather than later.
Kerr says Steph isn't playing in 1st round, Kerr called out his team before this game, and they responded with a 40 point loss. Trouble in paradise...
For me, Warriors losing in first round would basically bring me the same level of happiness from the Blazers winning in the first round.
They're sand bagging, they'll have a smooth ride for most of the playoffs. Rockets looked like shit in their last playoff run, GS will beat them 4-1.
Without Steph they are mortal. Draymond is playing like a YMCA geezer, and Klay is barely above average this year. The "Big 4" are really a Big Two with Durant and Steph. I can't imagine KD is super-pleased with basically an OKC scenario in Golden State; yeah, Steph might be nicer and more talented than Russ, but this injury does make them vulnerable.
If they're down 0-2 or something crazy then yeah totally he's back. I don't think Steph returns until they're down two games in a series, and that includes the second round.
Draymond hasn't forgotten how to play basketball. He was DPOY last year. Steph will be back, even if its after first round, so be it. Durant is Durant Klay averaged 20 a game this year. They have championship experience and know what they have to do. I think they'll be fine. Houston is going to be tough for them, and I can see Houston winning a series vs GS.
They're just bored, they are letting other teams kill themselves while they're resting and giving Durant a chance to earn some respect points. They have nothing to play for right now.
That might be too late. You can't count on Curry to come back and be 100% right away. Plus, we beat fully heathy GS team. Utah beat fully healthy GS team by 30. They better take the first two games seriously.
