Hot Shots: Warriors On Pace to Win the 2021-22 NBA Championship

Oh, how quickly they forget.

It’s funny how time works, right? It feels like it wasn’t too long ago when the Golden State Warriors completed a dynasty for the ages, winning three championships in five years.

Since the departure of current Brooklyn Nets forward Kevin Durant, experts have quickly written off the Warriors, especially since Warriors guard Klay Thompson went down with an ACL tear and Achilles tear a year later.

Fast-forward to the 2021-2022 season, and the Warriors are once again atop the Western Conference, sitting at a comfortable 29-9 record.
