The roster even looks quite different from their 2022 championship.

Since that miraculous season, the Warriors have had two tough seasons in a row. In 2023 they had a fun seven-game playoff series with the Sacramento Kings but then lost disappointingly to <a  href=\"https:\/\/www.basketball-reference.com\/players\/j\/jamesle01.html\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">LeBron James<\/a> and the Lakers.

Although Thompson hasn\u2019t been the same since suffering two major injuries a few years ago, he was still a solid starter for the Warriors. Now, the Warriors will be relying on second-year <a  href=\"https:\/\/www.basketball-reference.com\/players\/p\/podzibr01.html\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Brandin Podziemski<\/a> to fill in for Thompson.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Klay Thompson goes 0-of-10 shooting in Sacramento elimination game and exits to an unknown Warriors future.

The Warriors are certainly hoping they got him enough help this offseason to at least make a deep playoff run. Instead of leaning further on their (still) somewhat unproven youth, the Warriors picked up savvy NBA veterans in the offseason to support their roster.<a  href=\"https:\/\/www.basketball-reference.com\/players\/a\/anderky01.html\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> Kyle Anderson<\/a> and <a  href=\"https:\/\/www.basketball-reference.com\/players\/m\/meltode01.html\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">De\u2019Anthony Melton<\/a> will help, but unless Curry and Green can continue their elite play, hitting the Warriors win total may be difficult.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Believers Take the Wins Over and Pacific Division Win<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For those who think that Curry and Green can still lead an elite team (or Podziemski and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.basketball-reference.com\/players\/k\/kuminjo01.html\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Jonathan Kuminga<\/a> could take a significant leap this season), taking the Warriors&#8217; win total over looks juicy. The Warriors haven\u2019t won less than 44 games since 2021.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another NBA best bet worth looking at for Warriors believers is for them to win the <a href=\"https:\/\/sportsbook.fanduel.com\/navigation\/nba?tab=division\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Pacific Division<\/a> at +400 odds. The Pacific division has historically been one of the <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/basketball\/2024\/09\/02\/top-5-nba-power-forwards-heading-into-the-2024-25-season\/\" target=\"_self\">best in the league<\/a>, but its\u2019 stars are getting old. The Lakers haven\u2019t improved their roster much, the Clippers lost one of their stars <a  href=\"https:\/\/www.basketball-reference.com\/players\/g\/georgpa01.html\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Paul George<\/a>, and the Suns&#8217; new star trio is still unproven.
