Golden State Warriors: 3 Most anticipated games of 2022-23 season

Potential Western Conference Finals preview
November 23, 2022
It’s unclear who will represent either conference in the NBA Finals this season. Plenty of teams have a genuine shot at making a run to the title.
One squad that feels poised to make some noise is the LA Clippers, led by a healthy Kawhi Leonard and Paul George.
The Dubs have had a few run-ins with Leonard. An old foe who infamously toppled the dynasty in 2019 behind one of the greatest playoff performances in NBA history.
Since leaving Toronto, Leonard hasn’t found much success. His Clippers imploded in the 2020 bubble, forfeiting a 3-1 lead to the Denver Nuggets. Leonard missed most of the playoffs in 2021 and the entire 2021-22 NBA season.
Meanwhile, George has dealt with his fair share of injuries. Though, when healthy, George has been an MVP-caliber player.
These two stars are as powerful as any duo in the league — when they are on the court.
Golden State gets a look at them on November 23 in what could be a potential preview of the Western Conference Finals.
