The month of November has seen the Warriors playing an amazing stretch of basketball games. Players’ roles have emerged throughout this time and now it’s time to update the Alpha Dog Rankings.

The Golden State Warriors have played lights out in the month of November. In terms of winning, overall dominance, and competing they have only gotten better. At the current time the team is boasting a 16-2 record on the regular season.

The Dubs are riding a 12 game winning-streak and are the number one ranked NBA team. On top of that, they are leading the league in points per game and assists per game. The defense has improved to 17th in the league in opposition points allowed per game at 104.9.

With a defense coming into form and offense that is definitely above elite status it is safe to say that the Golden State Warriors are coming into it’s identity. Kevin Durant is fitting in well and his versatility is on display. Draymond Green is defending at an elite clip.

Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson are also more than holding up expectations. With everything going great in Dub Nation it’s time to rank our Alpha Dogs.
