Deadseriousness 2021-22 NBA Preview: Golden State Warriors

Biggest storyline of the season

THE GANG IS BACK BAYBEEEE. Except Steph Curry is a year older, Klay Thompson hasn’t played in an NBA game in 2 years and Draymond Green looks like he’s trying to get a medicine ball inside of a needle eye.

Some people believe it’ll be like riding a bike for this team and they’ll be right back in the title hunt. But I watched Draymond Green last season. It’s over for that mouthbreathing sociopath. He’s going to do his intense dribbling full speed into traffic except it’s going to be Anthony Davis standing at the rim swatting his shit into the concession stands.

The league has changed since the Warriors won their first title. Everyone shoots like Golden State now. Everyone plays small ball. They’ve been surpassed.

Key players

Steph Curry: the good thing about the Warriors being mid the last two seasons is it finally gave me an opportunity to actually appreciate what Curry does on a basketball court. Hated him when they walked out in the 3rd quarter and blew every team out of the gym but now that all of their games go down to the wire, this Steph guy is prettyyyyyyyy good at this.

Klay Thompson: After seeing Durant return from achilles and look better than he ever has, there should be no concern about what Klay does when he finally steps back out there in a Warriors jersey. 42% career shooting from 3. Your team improves when Klay Thompson gets more minutes than Damion Lee.

James Wiseman: Tough to be drafted between Anthony Edwards and Lamelo Ball last year. Those two had phenomenal rookie seasons and Wiseman looked like probably shouldn’t have left college early.

Andrew Wiggins: The Moderna King.

Draymond Green: Presenting the worst player in the NBA

Andre Iguodala: On one hand, Iggy is a homophobic asshole but on the other hand he stole a Finals MVP from Steph Curry thus always giving people a reason to diminish his accomplishments and that’ll always be hilarious.

Avery Bradley lol.

How the Warriors can win the title

Steph Curry needs to be the best player in the NBA this year. This roster isn’t title worthy as it currently stands. I’m not going to sit here and talk about Steph/Otto Porter pick n rolls. Nah, this is 1000% about Steph balling out of his mind in spite of Draymond dribbling off his own feet.
