While Boston decided to actually try to make its team better this summer, Golden State chose to basically do nothing.
Stephen Curry of the Golden State Warriors speaks to the media after defeating the Boston Celtics 103-90 in Game 6 to win the 2022 NBA Finals at TD Garden on June 16, 2022.It’s always a joy for those with a stake in narratives or those allured by the possibility of revenge when we get the first NBA Finals rematch of the season. That’s coming full-speed to ABC on Saturday, when thehost the Boston Celtics for the first time since the 2022 NBA Finals.
But Golden State’s culture — especially its frequent intersection with arrogance — can’t save its game play on the court. The Warriors will have to do that themselves. And thus far, the returns aren’t exactly looking great. How did we get to this point? The point in which the world champions, led by Stephen “Destroyer of Worlds” Curry, can’t be considered anything but an underdogto the team the Warriors unceremoniously dispatched a few months prior? Well, simply put: The Celtics embarked on a new path, and the Warriors abstained from choosing one.
Boston made moves over the summer. It acquired another scoring threat and playmaker in Malcolm Brogdon for flotsam and jetsam. The team signed Danilo Gallinari. Both acquisitions were meant to bolster an already dangerous team with even more offensive weapons, in light of the C’s getting bounced in a tightly fought NBA Finals series by one of the most potent offensive juggernauts in the game.
