The Golden State Warriors are ready for the all-star break. After three straight trips to the Finals and nothing left to prove, it was a given that this season was going to present its own challenges.
Much has been made of the Warriors recent slump. They were blown out by Utah, barely scraped by Sacramento, and let a lead against Denver slip through their fingers. Yet none of that could prepare them (and the rest of Dub Nation) for the complete shellacking at the hands of Oklahoma City.
With the team looking listless and lethargic, the bench has been a convenient scapegoat.
