The Golden State Warriors are 4-0. That is not a sentence I was thinking that I’d be writing after the Dubs missed the playoffs and added five players, all of which didn’t seem like the biggest difference makers.

They’ve run through a few weaker Western Conference opponents after completing a two-game sweep of the teams in Los Angeles, taking down the Lakers at Staples Center and the Clippers at home.

The Golden State Warriors have stayed perfect through four games, but they still have a few players that should be doing more for the cause.

This team has impressed. While they won their first two games on the back of a Stephen Curry triple-double and then a Curry 45-point effort, these past two and even parts of the first two have been dictated by the newcomers.

So far this season, the Warriors have won by 12, 8, 2, and 7 for an average margin of victory of more than seven. They’ve been a completely different team, one that feels synchronized on both sides of the court.

That said, while they’ve played well, scoring triple digits in all four games, there is always room for improvements. With that in mind, let’s dive into three players fans should be expecting more from in the near future.
