3. The Warriors might not lose either of their next two games against the Thunder. Their season might not end after 82 wins instead of 89.
But ... it probably will, right? It’s tough to watch any bit of Games 3 and 4, both OKC victories that were sealed in the first half, and think Golden State has anything approaching an even shot at handling its business. When Steven Adams has that much time to get his feet set in the pocket and look off your safeties, things aren’t going your way.
So, if the Warriors get dumped — and again, they probably will — the time for excuses will be upon us. Here are seven they and their fans should definitely, totally, absolutely not use.
1. Stephen Curry is hurt, probably.
There’s validity to this one. Curry looked far from himself in the last two games. Sprained MCLs don’t just go away after two weeks, and a healthy version of the MVP doesn’t have one game where he makes less than 10 shots from the field, let alone four consecutive. He was particularly abysmal in Game 4, going 6-of-20 overall and 3-of-11 from 3.
So, it makes sense that we learned on Wednesday morning, via a Curry source speaking to The Vertical, that he’s “70 percent at best.” He looks it.
Still — he’s out there. He's playing. He’s drawing defensive attention. And, most of all, he’s been great at times post-injury. A sprained knee doesn’t directly cause passes into the stands. Lots of people were spitballing a couple weeks ago about whether the Warriors could win the conference with Curry at zero percent. Seventy percent should be enough, if nothing else, to prevent this, right?
