The Golden State Warriors will be upset in the first round
Through the first half of the season, there was not a team that was playing at a higher level than the Golden State Warriors. However, since about January, much of that has changed. It started with an injury to Draymond Green and the Warriors still have not quite looked right since then.
Even though the expectation is that Stephen Curry will be back for the postseason, I’m not entirely sold on the Warriors getting back to the level of play that they were at during the beginning of the season.
The Warriors are going to have a huge target on their backs and this is a team that could be subjected to an upset in the first round, especially if Steph isn’t 100 percent when he returns from injury.
