Nothing is guaranteed with this Golden State Warriors team. Coming into the four-game road trip, most people had these games against the Miami Heat and Orlando Magic tagged as the easy ones. With the Philadelphia 76ers, Boston Celtics, and Denver Nuggets on the horizon, the consensus was that the Warriors would easily roll over these relatively weak Florida teams before facing “real” tests starting Saturday in Philly.
Welp. It hasn’t worked out like that so far. A tough road loss cemented by an absolutely ridiculous game winning shot from Dwayne Wade is still sitting like a brick in the pit of our stomachs, as the team heads to Orlando without a few critical players.
