Golden State Warriors: Breaking Down The Final Six Games Before History
April 7th: San Antonio Spurs
The final four games alternate between the Spurs and Grizzlies. It will begin with a game against the Spurs at home. After their 30 point victory in January, the Spurs got their revenge in a match where they severely contained Stephen Curry. It is the hope that Andre Iguodala and Festus Ezeli will be back in the lineup, but the big question will be what adjustments coach Steve Kerr has made to combat the Spurs.
For the Spurs, a victory over Golden State in their home would be huge for their confidence going into the playoffs. After a season in which both teams have dominated at home, a road victory would be a big statement for the postseason.
The Warriors have been on pace to make history all year, and because of that it’s been overlooked just how much of a contender San Antonio really is. With both LaMarcus Aldridge and Kawhi Leonard in good form going into the playoffs, the defending champions will have their hands full.
