We Warriors fans are a cocky bunch, and so are the Golden State Warriors. After all, even after a rough loss — or any loss really — it’s all to easy to say “well, the Warriors didn’t play their best. No way these guys beat us if we play right.” Because it’s true. This team has a ceiling so high, it may as well be in outer space.
And then up comes this Houston Rockets team. Rising up to let the Warriors know that just because the Cleveland Cavaliers are struggling doesn’t mean that we are going to stroll our leisurely way into a repeat NBA championship.
