The Golden State Warriors have a lot of work to do if they want the upcoming NBA season to be better than the last one. The Dubs finished 10th in the Western Conference standings a year ago, which means there are nine teams they’re trying to leapfrog over this year ... while staving off the teams behind them, like the Memphis Grizzlies, Houston Rockets, San Antonio Spurs, and Utah Jazz.
One of those teams that bested the Warriors a year ago was the LA Clippers, who finished fourth in the West last season with a 51-31 record, docking six more wins than Golden State did.
