And the Warriors match up well with some of the top contenders in the West like OKC and Houston.
Remember 3weeks ago..Warriors defeated the no.1 seed OKC thunder…take note Jimmy Butler is not yet in warriors that time…warriors will defeated okc.
Didn’t the Warriors beat OKC TWICE this season already?….

She is the worst host I have ever watched in sports history
GSW needs a decent Center.,
The Warriors are 2-1 without Jimmy Butler this season when the Warriors are at their weakest. I wouldn't be so confident about how good OKC is.
Nah 1st round exit for the Warriors their on a fluke it will be over soon for them lol.
Every single Warrior fan and the players themselves are praying they get OKC in the playoffs. Easiest series they can get in the west lmao. The Warriors would do OKC worse than they did Celtics in 22.
Its good right now, but let get real, Butler can be a reliability when things not going his way. So time will tell.
The NBA is rigged. WCW or WWF
Draymond Green says the Warriors can win the championship, but with their current roster, do they really have what it takes to beat younger, stronger teams like OKC or the Nuggets in a seven-game series?
Warriors gonna be scary when Kuminga gets back
They need to upgrade their bench play.
JIMMY IS A PROFESSIONAL. HE KNOWS HOW TO PLAY THIS GAME.
Shams = DEI hire
Healthy warriors team can make the finals
Team's don't don't wanna see Golden State in the playoffs know that
Golden state doesn have number 1 player and number 2 option .. they got 2 number 1 options 1a curry 1b butler . Only smart people will understand .
I think Warriors are getting 5 spot. Then it's game on.
Luka steals is passing lanes he isn’t really stopping ppl
1:20 Shams Ai impression 😂
The advantage of Butler vs Wiggins is his aggressiveness and power in attacking inside the paint.
When he was in Chicago, they were WINNING.
When he was in Minnesota, they were WINNING.
When he was in Philly, they were WINNING.
When he was in Miami, they were WINNING.
Well. Jimmy is a WINNER. Simple is that.
To me this has the chance to be "We Believe II" meaning that the Warriors were left for dead during at one point of the season, got their act together, made it to the playoffs, and then pulled off a miracle run. The only differences are that they still have some of the main pieces of that dynasty still on board compared to being in a long playoff drought prior to 07, and that it won't just be winning a single playoff series. They are capable of getting to at least the Western Conference Finals if they play up to their potential. Could they get to the Finals, I'm not sure, but it wouldn't surprise if "We Believe II" happens.
How they the best team since Jan 15th when Cavs and Thunder been non stop ballin. SMARTEN UP
Correct me if I'm wrong, Warriors haven't played against teams with full roster since Butler trade
Fear the Warriors
Relax they beat up a banged up Mavs team that still has to deal with the after shock of the boneheaded decision to trade Luka
Draymond gonna have Butler in a headlock come playoffs
Yes we got butler
You know what else is MASSIVE?
Eqsy championship now
i'm not convinced yet. when you have TWO volatile players like Green and Butler on ONE team, ANYTHING can happen! and when i say "anything", i'm not referring to good things, rme….
1:20 omg. We talking about practice. PRACTICE!?!?
Hostile work environment for Butler in Miami and hostile Dubs fans want Kerr replaced before the trade deadline. You can sense ton of skeptics were against Butler coming to the Warriors. Have they all left the country?
Crazy as it sounds, I want to see a Lakers vs Warriors first round playoff series. It might seem like a high appeal low meaningful series – but it would certainly show which team wants it most and which team has enough depth (which should be the Lakers, at least "on paper").
Shams “I will not smile” Charania. He wants to be taken seriously so bad
Steph and Jimmy are Boston's two worst nightmares on the same team.
Stop calling the Dubs a threat. 🤫 Go back to when y'all weren't talking about the Dubs. 🤫🤫🤫
playoffs is diff bruh😂😂😂
i do think wolves with full line up, lakers, nuggets and a full line up of mavericks can kick that okc in playoffs…in playoffs😂😂😂
At this point Pat Riley's decision was a bad one and no sports analyst want to be the one to say it..🤣🤣🤣
Okc doesn't have immunity they are young, look at what Minnesota responded and did tonight , okc blew a 25+ lead
