TURNING POINT

The Golden State Warriors had a rocky start at the beginning of the season after they lost their first game against the San Antonio Spurs. Will they bounce back and find their way into the NBA Finals?

The Golden State Warriors fell to San Antonio Spurs during their first game of the season. This surprised NBA fans since the Warriors gained another shooter for their team after Kevin Duran was drafted for the Warriors. The Warriors also lost their game to the Los Angeles Lakers with the score 117-97. The Warriors was led by Durant who made 27 points while the two time MVP Stephen Curry had 13 points but failed to make a three pointer throughout the whole game.

The Warriors are strong offensively but it is evident in their games that they are struggling on the defensive line.

The Warriors’ turning point was during their game against New Orleans Pelicans when Curry broke his record of making the most three pointers in a game, he made 13 three pointers that night which eventually led Warriors to a 116-106 win. After that game, the Warriors was able to continue bouncing back after that where they won back to back games whether at home or away.

The Warriors had already set up another streak with 12-0 where Curry and Durant had been averaging at least 28 points per game. Klay Thompson who had been struggling during the start of the season has now been averaging 18.8 points per game. The rotation of the ball on the floor has also been improving as the players keep finding men on the inside to make the shot. Will the Warriors keep their winning streak and find their way to the NBA Finals?
