Looking ahead at their chances of a fourth title in eight seasons.
It has been three years since the Warriors have been in the playoffs — the real playoffs, not the play-in format they were relegated to last season.There are many questions about the Warriors heading into this postseason and the pursuit of a fourth championship in eight years, but before they are presented, let’s acknowledge what this team already has accomplished.
So don’t poo-poo the No. 3 seed. This team could have gone the route of the Lakers, who despite a Hall of Fame roster led by LeBron James finished 33-49 and out of the playoffs. That’s bad news for a team that is only optimistic — not certain — if Curry will be ready for Game 1. The other factor is Nikola Jokic, the 6-foot-11 do-it-all Serbian and the favorite to win a second-straight MVP award. Jokic averaged 27 points, 14 rebounds and eight assists and added defense to his game this season.
The Nuggets don’t match up with the Warriors at four positions, but at center, Denver’s advantage is so significant, that it will unquestionably be the fulcrum of the series.
