LOS ANGELES — After five-straight trips to the NBA Finals, the Warriors aren’t accustomed to ranking at the bottom of the league in many categories. This preseason, however, has revealed a couple of potential vulnerabilities.
“Between the rebounding and the fouling, those are the areas we’ve talked about the most,” Kerr said following Monday night’s preseason loss to the Lakers.
Headed into their third preseason game Wednesday night at Staples Center, the Warriors rank near the bottom of the league in both offensive rebounds allowed and personal fouls committed. Both provide additional opportunities for opponents to score, something the Warriors can’t afford this season.
