At first glance, it seems like something you’d frame the other way around. What could the Warriors, in their current mid-season skid, learn from the Niners, who did get it together in time to make a playoff run? Could the Warriors figure out the basketball equivalent of “give Deebo the ball” and “move Arik Armstead inside” in order to save their season?
Maybe they could, but as a Niner fan, I’m more interested in how the Warriors ended up in their current situation. The Warriors are executing a plan they put together the last offseason, back when they faced a very similar crossroads to what the 49ers are currently navigating.
