Can the Warriors break out of the West? Anyway, there are not many people who are optimistic about the Warriors now, and most of the teams that are now optimistic now have two teams, one is the Suns of the West and the other is the Bucks of the East. Quite simply, the two teams played each other in the Finals last season. And this season, the two teams are still very strong, especially the Suns, and the overall team strength seems to have improved by a notch, so it looks like these two teams are more likely to play in the finals. The Warriors, more people, think that the uncertainty is very large, that although the Warriors are strong this season, they seem to be a little bit worse to the point of reaching the Finals.
Actually, what does this thing say? Maybe Curry will have a say, at the end of last season, the Warriors did not make the playoffs, after the game Curry said a sentence: "Next season we will be a team that no one in the league wants to meet!" "It's true in the middle of the season, no team wants to meet the Warriors. At the end of the regular season this season, the Warriors were also not very optimistic, and Curry said: "Except for our family, almost no one will be optimistic about us rushing out of the West... Obviously, nothing is going to be easy, which is why we like the atmosphere of the playoffs, which is fun. ”
Curry has long believed that this season's Warriors can reach the Finals, so it is not easy to say what the Warriors are. Before the start of the season, the outside world predicted the Warriors' record to be between sixth and eighth in the West, but in the end, the Warriors won the third place in the West, which is a small dark horse team. And in the key confrontation, the Warriors have won the Suns, Grizzlies, Nuggets, Jazz, Timberwolves and other strong teams in the West, and also won the Heat, Nets, Bucks and other Eastern teams, the Warriors seem to be able to play anyone.
And for the Warriors, their full body doesn't seem to have really been shown yet! Now it's just Green, Curry, and Thompson playing together for a short time, but the three of them have only played briefly for a while in three years, and obviously they haven't fully adapted. What does this mean? The Warriors haven't come up with a fully complete lineup this season, with Curry, Thompson, Green and even Iguodala, who haven't played the ball together in its entirety yet.
So now the strength of other teams is probably understood by everyone, the upper and lower limits are also very clear, basically showing the strengths and weaknesses of the team, but the Warriors are not the same. The real core lineup has not yet been fully adapted, and the playoffs are the real lineup formation for the Warriors. How far can go and how high the ceiling is is difficult to predict, it can only be said that this year's playoff Warriors have a very good chance, and the opportunity is very large, winning the championship may not be easy to say now, but it is not impossible to rush out of the West.
