After a disappointing finish to the 2022-23 NBA season, there are many opinions about the Golden State Warriors.
The Warriors entered this season as the defending champions and are set to extend their dominance in the league.
However, several things throughout the season got in the way of those plans and the Los Angeles Lakers eliminated them from the 2023 playoffs.
After this game, many people celebrated the Warriors’ defeat, including Skip Bayless, who was very happy for his loss.
Steve was put to sleep. Drymond is silenced. No more chest beating, parading boats, hot dog, running in front. loved it.

Golden State has a lot of work to do in order to challenge for the championship next season.
It won’t be easy, because it starts with the future decision of General Manager Bob Myers.
Jordan Paul appears to be a focal point of criticism for his lack of effort during the playoffs.
He wasn’t the same player the Warriors saw last season.
His relationship with Draymond Green wasn’t the best either, and that probably lasted all year.
Paul struggled several times in the playoffs, earning a lot of criticism for his performance.
Klay Thompson also struggled in the playoffs and had several underperforming games.
The Warriors will need to make some changes this summer and evaluate some important contract decisions such as Klay Thompson and Draymond Green.
