Kevin O'Connor Claims Warriors Are The Favorites For The Title: "Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, And Jordan Poole Are The Best Offensive Trio In The NBA."

The Golden State Warriors have recently defeated the Denver Nuggets in Game 3 of their series. Though it was a close game, ultimately the Warriors prevailed due to their guard trio of Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, and Jordan Poole.

NBA analyst Kevin O'Connor has recently claimed that the Golden State Warriors are the favorite for the title once again. He stated that the Warriors' guard trio is the "best offensive trio" in the league, and added that Draymond Green is the "league's best defender", hence him picking the Warriors as the favorite.

Steph Curry, Klay Thompson, and Jordan Poole are the best offensive trio in the NBA. Draymond Green is the league’s best defender. Warriors have depth, experience. Other teams have injuries. The Death Lineup is back. Golden State is the favorite again.

There is no doubt that the Golden State Warriors have a very good shot of winning the title. They have a lot of talent on their roster, and when their offense is flowing, it is hard to imagine any defense stopping them. They finished as the No. 3 seed in the Western Conference, but Warriors forward Draymond Green previously claimed that seeding doesn't matter for them, and added that they would win the title regardless.

"Whether we're the No. 2 seed or No. 3 seed, we're going to win a championship. Don't really matter."

It remains to be seen if the Golden State Warriors will end up winning the championship. They definitely have a solid chance of being able to do so, and their veterans know what it's like to win at the highest level.

A lot of fans would love for the Golden State Warriors to be back to the Finals, but there is definitely quite some time left until that potentially happens. It would be good to see Stephen Curry get back to the highest stage of basketball, and perhaps this is the year he gets his Finals MVP.

Klay Thompson to sit out Warriors preseason games in Japan as Kerr says he needs more time to ramp-up

Klay Thompson may have returned healthy to the Golden State Warriors last season, but the scars from his two missed seasons are still quite visible. The Warriors played their first of two preseason games against the Washington Wizards on Friday and will play another on Sunday, but Warriors coach Steve Kerr said that Thompson will not be playing at all during the trip to Japan. "Just feel more comfortable giving him a little more of a ramp up," Kerr said before Friday's victory over Washington. "He's just not quite ready to play at this point just based on where, you know, we're so early in camp. We just want to be safe and make sure he gets a good ramp-up before he plays in games." Typically, so little time to ramp up wouldn't be a problem for a veteran in a preseason context. The games tend to be so low-impact and demand so few minutes out of a team's best players that they can safely jog through them. Stephen Curry and Draymond Green played 1...

Shaquille O'Neal says Dennis Rodman was his worst teammate: 'He was a great player, but he made it hard'

Shaquille O'Neal played for six franchises over a 20-year NBA career. That's a lot of teammates. Speaking on The Big Podcast with Shaq, the four-time champion and Hall of Famer revealed which one of those teammates was the worst. "Worst teammate? Dennis Rodman," O'Neal said. "He was a great player, but he made it hard. Like when you try to corral the guys together and the people above you [are] letting this one guy do whatever he wants. So we had to be there an hour before the game. He'd come in fifteen minutes before the game eating chicken and rice. While the coaches are talking, he would jump in the shower. Cold shower. Come and give you 15-20 rebounds." O'Neal played with some characters in his time. We know about his beef with Kobe Bryant, who we know wasn't always the easiest teammate to get along with, though Shaq has long expressed regret over the way he and Bryant handled their relationship as young superstars, and eventually, he ...

LeBron James says he has 'no relationship' with Lakers legend Kareem Abdul-Jabbar

It's not a matter of if LeBron James passes Kareem Abdul-Jabbar for the No. 1 spot on the NBA's all-time scoring list, it's when. James sits just 1,326 points away from passing the Hall of Famer and Los Angeles Lakers legend, a milestone that should happen at some point this season given James is still performing at peak levels and is coming off a year in which he averaged over 30 points a night. If he averages around the same amount of points as he did a season ago for the Lakers, James could break the record somewhere in the middle of the season, assuming he stays healthy. It's a highly anticipated moment heading into the season, but in regards to LeBron's thoughts about and his relationship with Abdul-Jabbar, he didn't have much to say on the matter. Following the Lakers first preseason game Monday night, a reporter asked James what his thoughts were on the Lakers legend and if the two had any relationship, to which LeBron gave a very short answer. "No...
