After two straight losses, both of which they’ll look back on and think they should’ve won, the Golden State Warriors will be watching the 2021 NBA Playoffs from the comfort of their California homes.

This season could easily go down as a success, especially considering they entered the play-in tournament without sensational rookie center James Wiseman or high-flying 25-year-old guard Kelly Oubre Jr.

The Golden State Warriors were one of the four play-in tournament teams to not make the playoffs, but they should be back and drastically better next season.

Stephen Curry proved his legacy as a player that has the ability to solely captain a quality team. While that was never up for debate, many used his star teammates as a reason to discredit his greatness. He destroyed any doubt this season.

This dynasty isn’t over yet. The Warriors have a few up-and-coming stars meanwhile Curry and Draymond Green are still playing some of the best basketball of their careers. Next season, they’ll be able to contend, not only for a playoff spot, but for an NBA Championship.

That said, let’s dive into what will change for this team over the course of the next six months.
