NBA: 3 early-season Western Conference trends to keep an eye on

The undermanned Warriors look extremely impressive

Though the Golden State Warriors have been forced to start the season with an injured James Wiseman and recovering Klay Thompson, the team’s play has suggested little of that. The undermanned Warriors have looked impressive on their way to a 4-0 start to the season.

They already have wins over both the Lakers and Clippers, and Stephen Curry is once again proving why he’s not only one of the most exciting players to watch, but also one of the most impactful players in the league.

The fact that Golden State is already playing this well without two of its biggest contributors should tell you that this team is prime to return to contender status this year. Now is not the time to doubt the Warriors. They seem ready to return to the limelight.
