Udonis Haslem warns warriors 2 teams in Playoff NBA

The Golden State Warriors (39-29) They were almost invincible with the Jimmy Butler’s trade deadline in the starting environment, but on Monday 114-105 home loss to a painfully abbreviated team Denver Nuggets proved that they are quite mortal. Recording 14-2 with Butler is still sensational, but this is in the ugly displays prominent only as steep climbing to the top, it could be for the latest NBA dynasty.

While the team and her fans will want to attribute the outcome of only a bad night or Excessively taken Stephen CurriTriple champion and current analyst Udonis Haslem believes that the contest is exposed The main golden weakness of the state. And that’s the one who wasn’t even Butler to fight.

“When talking about Aaron Gordon and Russell Westbrook, you talk about guys who have size, speed, and athletics,” Haslem said on the ESPN’s “NBA today”, according to the Andi Lindquist NBC sports bay.

“These are kinds of guys are struggling with. Less guards who can overcome, the bigger guys who can usually be bypassed. These teams are with them. Guys with folding matches that can keep it on the post and rim.”

The warriors are currently in sixth place in the Western Conference and would be fighting in Nuggets in the playoffs if the regular season ended on Monday. Haslem actually thinks there are two teams that represent even more dangers for them.

Thunder and rockets have special forces that could overcome warriors

“Ni (Oklahoma or Houston) in the first round will play well for the golden state,” Favorite Miami heat fan and injustice forward. “But (Oklahoma City Thunder) There are wing defenders. They have Alex Caruso; They have Lugentz Rorta. They have these long-lasting, guys for defenders. And Houston (rockets) also have it. So neither of these teams in the first round will play well for the golden state. So, in my opinion, move as much as you can and get out of there. “

Thunder has seed no. 1 Basically locked (12 and pole pomehip half) and railway missiles are currently occupying another slot via Tiebreaker. It seems unlikely that warriors can reach the finals without passing or one of these franchises. Versatility can be a threat to a team that relies heavily on veterans, so there is a natural concern that OKC and Houston could carry a golden state.

However, the primary pedigree is a powerful thing. Stephen Curri and Draimond Green, each won four titles and Jimmy Butler competed for two in her law. If you can occasionally lean on top athletic Jonathan Kuminga and underestimated carrier, Steve Kerr’s group could potentially overcome any observed nightmares of the match.

No matter what warriors are probably not afraid of anyone in NBA PLAY-OF. Even if the reconnaissance report images restless image, they will impose fearlessness. It is an invaluable quality that has when the trouble is reduced to you. But will it be enough enough?
