Over their last ten games, the Warriors have lost seven (and they are in the middle of a four-game losing streak).

ESPN’s Anthony Slater wrote (on Friday night): “Painful time for the Warriors. They lost four players to injury tonight (Draymond Green, Al Horford, Seth Curry, Quinten Post) and then lost a fourth straight game. They are about to go on a road trip that includes stops in New York, Boston, Detroit and Atlanta.”
