    We've faced two of the better teams in the NBA in the Rockets and Raptors, and another team that (while bad) isn't a bottom 5 team this year, and despite struggles, we've run all three of them close.

    Warriors have played OKC (who most believe will miss the playoffs this year) and gow blown out by 30, and when they played the Clippers they got blown out by 20. And looked really bad all the way.

    Yeah, honestly I underestimated how horrible they would look. I just pencilled them in for a playoff spot before the season started: a low one, of course, bottom 3, because of Klay missing and the depth they've lost.

    Right now they're looking solidly lottery. Obviously its only two games in and you can never say how they're going to be in the long run, but at this point it's not pretty. And I don't think it's just circumstantial: I think we're seeing obvious signs that the waythey run their offense can't function with the personnel they currently have.

    I'm just not willing to overlook a Warriors team, regardless of how bad they look. They certainly have the experience edge over our team, and I'm expecting this game tonight to be tough.

    Do they have the experience edge tho?

    The combined NBA years experience of their team is 43: Klay doesn't count because he's injured, Looney doesn't count because he's also injured, and they're playing 3 rookies.
    The combined NBA years of experience of our team is 53, assuming Jrue plays, and even if he doesn't we're still at 43 tied with the Warriors, and we're playing fewer rookies with both Zion and Hayes not seeing minutes.

    Of course, we've had massive roster turnover, so if you mean experience in terms of playing together, maybe, but they have huge turnover too. D'Lo, Cauley-Stein, Spellman, Chriss, Poole, Smailagic, Paschall, and Burks are all first-year Warriors players, and obviously Klay is out so they don't even have that inbuilt chemistry. At least Hart/Ingram/Lonzo have experience playing together as a three.

    What amazes me is how down the Warriors are on themselves. They keep coming on tv after every loss telling people how bad they are and how much worse its gonna get. I am floored by the honesty.

    A perfect example of a the TANK. Thompson won’t be back for a while. Probably already had in mind just to take year off.

    Why lie?

    Draymond, for all he's a loudmouth, has always spoken his mind openly, and so has Kerr, and even Curry to a slightly lesser extent. They were always going to spend this season talking, the only real question was what the subject would be. And they suck.

    As it is now, I'd be shocked if this Warriors team won 35 games. Obviously there's always a chance for Klay to come back at All-Star break looking great and they go on a tear, or maybe Curry finds his Unanimous MVP form from somewhere deep inside and starts averaging 40 on ridiculous efficiency, or maybe a bunch of their young guys take leaps and they finish the year strong. That's always possible. But just the way things are right now it's bleak for them.

    Apparently the team took this as an insult, and went out there with the express purpose of proving us wrong.
