Golden State Warriors: Breaking Down The Final Six Games Before History
April 9th: Memphis Grizzlies
The toughest stretch will be their pair of road games against Memphis and San Antonio. The Grizzlies have played fairly well since losing Marc Gasol to injury, their brightest moment being their victory over the Cavs essentially without their starting lineup.
Though, Memphis, who is still technically fighting for a playoff spot in the Western Conference, has lost five-straight games in a row.
While the Grizzlies are 5th in the West, the Warriors are heavily favored in that matchup. At this point in the week, it is expected that the team will be within reach of the record assuming they win the first two. Of course, this game becomes a must-win if the Warriors falter in any of their first three games.
All in all, this should be a very winnable game for the Warriors, especially with what’s left of the Grizzlies roster.
