The Golden State Warriors are going to be a playoff-contending team in the West, but they could use a superstar to bolster their Finals chances.
While the Golden State Warriors have shown that they can beat high-profile teams like the Lakers and Clippers, they’ve also lost a handful of embarrassing games, most recently to the Hornets and Magic.
