The Golden State Warriors will face off against the Dallas Mavericks on Christmas Day and will see an old friend in Klay Thompson. The legendary guard could accidentally help his former team get back on the right track, having been trending in the right direction with two-straight wins to get back to .500 on the season.
Sure, the Draymond Green incident with head coach Steve Kerr on the bench detracted from their win on Monday, but they have a chance to build upon their last two games and take down another Western Conference rival.

All season the Warriors have gone back and forth, looking strong for a game or two and appearing like they are about to take off before some ugly and frustrating losses that make one question how far the team can go as currently constructed.
