The Warriors Just Punched The NBA In The Throat

The Warriors Just Punched The NBA In The Throat

On January 10th the Golden State Warriors took a massive Al at home the worst since Steve Kerr took over his head coach a few days later they suffered another disastrous defeat against a Memphis Grizzlies team that was so banged up that they were practically a g-league squad in Disguise

And if that wasn’t enough there was more trouble Brewing Draymond Green was one meltdown away from getting booted from the NBA Klay Thompson was clocking in way too many minutes for his inconsistency and then there was Andrew Wiggins who seemed to be just going through the

Motions 18 and 22 was where they sat in the Western Conference picture at the time for a team with the highest payroll in the NBA things were looking pretty Grim some people were calling for Kerr to be fired some others were saying that the warriors were done and heck even JJ

Reck dropped a video claiming that the dynasty has ended but then bam the Warriors out of nowhere came back and hit hard practically punching the NBA in the throat defensively kaminga long stries rever champ I could go on and on about Steph Curry’s ice cold dagger that had Kevin

Durant wishing he never left Golden State but let’s be real Draymond threw some colorful words in KD’s Direction after that last defensive play which reminded KD exactly why he bounced but as of right now I mean the dynasty been over we let let’s be real it’s been

Over for the last year and a half in my opinion it has I mean that the proof is in the pudding so pudding guys the only takeaway here is that Kendrick Perkins might just be enjoying a bit too much of that dessert lately but let’s cut to the chase

Whenever the chatter turns to the end of The Warriors Dynasty it always just zeros in on one guy Klay Thompson I mean Steph Curry is still out there playing like an MVP Draymond Green on the other hand has been more accurate than ever and is still dominating on defense like

It’s nobody’s business and then you know what’s hilarious every time they start throwing shade at clay he just comes out and delivers a vintage clay performance just like how he recently did against the Utah Jazz so claiming the Dynasty’s finish doesn’t quite make sense especially when you look at the Warriors

Last 11 games which has been showing us that the Dynasty’s heartbeat is still as strong as ever especially with the rise of Jonathan kaminga and the unexpected surprise of Brandon pimi Steve Kerr keeps saying this kid is the real deal they knew he was good but

I don’t think they expected this kind of an impact these two have really flipped the script for the Warriors this season and the past few games have shown it and uh here’s what I mean the Indiana Pacers are quickly becoming one of the teams to watch in the NBA with Tyrese halberton

Leading the charge they’ve turned into an offensive Powerhouse becoming one of the best offensive teams the league has ever seen then to the surprise of everybody they got even better when they snagged Pascal seaka midseason while they’re still not the best team in the East I think we can all

Agree that this Pacers team is no joke and that’s EX exactly why the Thursday night faceoff with the Warriors was circled on my calendar this was more than just a game this was a test for golden state was the recent success legit or was it just a lucky streak of

Wins well it didn’t take long for the Warriors to answer that question come my goodness come on 6 for six like usual Steph Curry stole the headlines but there was much more to the story Jonathan kaminga turn heads with his performance racking up the sixth most points in the paint since January a

Stat that’s hard to ignore then there’s Draymond Green who’s been on fire since his return from suspension not just with his defense but as the heart and beat of the Warriors draymond’s impact doesn’t stop there either he’s been instrumental in Awakening Andrew Wiggins proving just how vital his energy is to the

Organization when Draymond is focused The Warrior aren’t just a team they’re Championship contenders this was evident in their next Showdown against Phoenix because uh if the Pacers game was a pop quiz facing the Suns was like a final exam this was a team that had won five

Of its last six games including one where they laid waste to the Milwaukee Bucks the combination of Durant Booker and Beal are starting to gel together in whichever way you look at it this was the one game that was truly going to test Golden State well uh that test turned into a show

Then turned into a war Steve K likes to say he plays like a big man and attacks the rim I’ll make a whole video in and of itself about this game but to summarize it here quickly I’d say that this game was a testament to the Warriors full potential when

They’re firing on all cylinders kaminga was showing KD what he’s capable of PODS was taking charges on Booker and Steph Curry was showing the world what happens when you’re on an island with him I don’t like being on this island next to Steph Curry I’m I’m retreating

Now I’m going to try to close it it’s over at that point the Suns soon found themselves in trouble especially nurkic who spent the game trying to antagonize Draymond hoping to get him kicked out of the game but instead it only sharpened draymond’s Focus leading him to arguably his best performance of the

Season then after Steph Curry hit that Monumental three and after Draymond locked down the defense it was clear the Golden State Warriors were back in business and guess who got a front row seat to the Warriors comeback tour her the Utah Jazz when they squared off in

The next game it was a master class in Warriors basketball we’re not talking about a couple of players stepping up we had a full-on Avengers cast not one not two but eight players who scored in double figures and with both Splash Brothers lighting up the arena like it

Was a personal fireworks show sure I could Rave about draymond’s defensive prowess in this game Andrew Wiggins pinpoint accuracy Gary pton doing Gary Payton things or even clay turning back the clock with his performance but honestly every single time Steph Curry just blows my mind this guy proved in

This game that he’s still on another level and just like that the Warriors who everyone and their Grandma had written off as yesterday’s news have made a comeback that’s nothing short of legendary they’ve not just bounced back either they’ve literally just punched the NBA in the throat and this leaves us

With the billion- dooll question what does this change in energy mean going forward well it’s pretty evident at this point the NBA is in trouble diving into the nitty-gritty details over the last 11 matchups the Warriors have notched eight wins and in those three losses one

Was by just a hair another was a hit job by the referees and the last one stretched into overtime when Murray hit that clutch mid-range to tie it up in regulation basically the warriors were that close to being on an 11 game win streak which would have made them the

Hottest team in the league all while the point God had been sidelined with a hand injury then uh peeping into those last 11 games a bit more get this the Warriors have had the fourth best offensive rating and the third best defensive rating in the whole league

Yeah let that sink in for a sec and the cherry on top throughout this whole wild 2024 season only one team is in the top four when it comes to both these Advanced NBA metrics the Boston Celtics we’re talking Elite company here guys it’s getting real hard to call this

An overreaction at this point if the Warriors keep this up and continue playing like how they’ve been playing this past month we’re not just talking about the playoffs we’re talking about Championship material makes you wonder what crazy takes Kendrick Perkins is going to come out with

Next all right rolling into the next big chunk of that billion dooll question can the Golden State Warriors actually win the 2024 NBA championship I mean after all the trash they’ve been getting from the media after all the doubters and the naysayers online can Steph Curry and his

Crew actually bounce back and grab that fifth ring well believe it or not the answer is a solid yes and let me break it down for you in the Western Conference against the young teams on the rise like the Thunder or the Timberwolves it’d be a hard-fought brawl

But the Warriors can Edge through either one of them with experience and execution and between you and me I’m kind of itching for the Warriors to match up against OKC because uh Steph’s got to serve up some sweet revenge for that Instagram jab thrown his way A

While back when it comes to teams like the Kings Mavericks or Pelicans oh it’s going to be a cakewalk well relatively speaking I see Golden State wrapping up these teams in five or six games tops I mean if the disjointed 2023 Warriors could beat the kings in seven just

Imagine what this revitalized Warriors team will do to them then against the Suns with Kevin Durant leading the charge nah I don’t see KD outshining step here also the Warriors defense is just too stacked it’s too coordinated in a best of seven series it’s going to be

The Warriors coming out on top now onto the Clippers and the nuggets real talk the Lakers actually give me more Jitters than the Clippers do because when it comes to the lake show the refs are always on their side and they end up with like what 20 extra free throws a

Game but putting that aside I’m betting on the Warriors to pull off a win against the Clippers in the postseason just like how Jordan blocked Malone and Stockton the Warriors will continue to be the sole reason why James hard and Russell Westbrook don’t have rings then there’s the yic lead nuggets

A squad that seemed like they were playing 4D chess in the 2023 playoffs and who look pretty dang good this year as well in saying that though I can’t gloss over the fact that in their three matchups with the Warriors this season they just barely squeaked by with wins

And given how the Warriors are currently playing I’m not seeing the Nuggets coming out on top it won’t be a walk in the park by any stretch and in playoff basketball anything’s possible but real talk I’m liking the Warriors odds against any team in the west right now and no that’s

Not just fan talk swinging over to the east side of things the 76ers are kind of out of the running thanks to embiid’s bad luck with injuries but let’s be real even if embiid was in tiptop shape I’m not convinced Philly could really take on Golden State embiid’s a beast but as

We all know a lot of his beast mode is activated at the free throw line and the playoff refs well they don’t exactly hand out free candy like they do in the regular season aside from the 76ers we’ve got the Celtics and the Bucks and when it comes to Milwaukee well their

Season’s been looking like a reality TV show all drama all the time honestly at this point I’d be surprised if they even made it to the finals and that leaves us with just the Celtics sure on paper they’re the team to beat but we’ve seen this episode before right last year they

Were all hyped up and then got shown the door by the eighth seated at heat watching them over the past few seasons it seems like they always kind of fizzle out when the playoffs hit and if they were to match up with the 2024 Warriors I’m calling it like it was 20122 Golden

State in six then after all this the NBA is going to have to have a serious discussion with five rings does Steph Curry surpass LeBron James when it comes to the all-time rankings me
