The Warriors are built to make a run at the playoffs, not sure how long they would sustain for a regular season. I don't know if they keep getting away with small ball and giving away offensive rebounds. They're just a streaky team, if they get hot they can beat anyone. They just couldn't hit shots tonight and they really had a chance to win.

What are some off season improvements they can make?

The only team that rested their starters were the Mavs. They would have beaten them at full strength which they showed anyways.

So walk over wins vs. the Mavs, Wizards, Portlandx2, Minnesotax2, Memphis. OMGZZ THEY WENT NUTS DOWN THE STRETCH!!!!

Warriors outplayed them in Game 2.

The last 2 games the warriors shot some terrible % in the low twenties. That's not who they are. They arent a 45% shooting team but they arent a 20% shooting team either.

1 more year for Biedrins and Monta to improve is definitely a giant plus for the warriors.

This series was a lot closer than the 4-1 shows. It easily can be 3-2 warriors right now. (let pietrus leave he cant make a freethrow to save his life)

Utah will improve but I dont think theyll improve as much as the warriors will

So Utah, Houston, Detroit, Denver, and Phoenix are all pushovers? Please dude.

[Mr biggums]

and this was only Nelsons first year with the warriors.

I think that for sure 5 of these 6 finish ahead of GSW:

Phoenix
San Antonio
Dallas
Utah
Houston
Denver

I think GSW will fight with one of those teams, as well as possibly every team other than Memphis or Portland for the #6-#8 seeds.

Clippers, Lakers, Hornets will all be tough.

Kings, TWolves, Sonics could all conceivably do enough in the offseason to make a run.

I'd put them at #7-8 right now, with the lakers and behind the 6 I listed up top.

Cut Pietrus
Draft Tiago Splitter
Teach Monta to stop on a dime
Teach everyone on the team to learn to run the pick and roll with Biedrins that Baron does.

Probably some more, these are just off the top of my head.
