Golden State’s “Two Timeline” experiment hasn’t gone swimmingly to start the season.
As much as it may be a still-early-in-the-season quirk, here is a shocking statement of fact considering how these teams have been discussed since opening night: Not only do the Warriors have the same number of losses as the Lakers as of Nov. 2, Golden State also has a worse net rating. That means, if you really wanted to, you could mount an argument that the Lakers (among many others) have been better than the Dubs so far this season.
