Recent stretch has the Golden State Warriors looking scary
By Tony Pesta
The Golden State Warriors appear to have hit their stride and are looking scarier than ever.
For much of this season, the Golden State Warriors were playing slightly below expectations. This isn’t to say that they were playing bad basketball, but they weren’t as dominant as they used to be. Recently, the Dubs have looked stronger than ever.
Up to this point in the season the Warriors have been battling for the 1-seed in the Western Conference. It had been a tight race all year between Golden State and the Denver Nuggets. It wasn’t until this recent stretch that the Dubs may have locked up the best record in the West.
Furthermore, the Dubs had been losing more games than usual. They will finish this season with the fewest amount of wins since 2015 and have been on the wrong end of multiple blowout games.
Luckily, something has clicked in Golden State. Maybe it’s due to Stephen Curry‘s new contact lenses or perhaps the team is just getting ready for the playoffs. Whatever it is, this new surge from the Warriors has them looking unbeatable.
The Dubs have won each of their last three games in impressive fashion. It began with a 137-90 victory over the Charlotte Hornets, followed by a 14-point beat down on the Nuggets and finished with an 18-point win against the Los Angeles Lakers.
Golden State now has four games remaining before the NBA playoffs begin. With games against the Cleveland Cavaliers and Memphis Grizzlies, this could be the perfect time to tune up any last second adjustments before the postseason.
This recent stretch from the team should be easing the minds of fans everywhere. This team is looking scary and is starting to play like everyone expected them too. If they keep it up, it should be another championship season.
