The Golden State Warriors loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves on Sunday was disappointing for a million and one reasons. They lost the momentum they had gained during their recent winning streak. The issues that looked to potentially be in the rearview mirror once again plagued them.
But more than anything else, the loss hurt because the Dubs dropped a very important game in the standings to a team that’s directly behind them.
That hurts.
With only a handful of games remaining, it’s a good time to take a look at where the Warriors — and the rest of the teams in the mix — stand.
