The Grizzlies, in some ways, resemble the young Warriors from nearly a decade ago — with their athleticism and swagger.
SAN FRANCISCO — For all those concerning losing streaks symptomatic of costly injuries, the Warriors weren’t dominated by many teams this regular season.
But of all the Warriors’ past and potential opponents, the Grizzlies could be the biggest obstacle in their title hopes yet. Why? In Memphis, the Warriors will be playing a younger version of themselves in some respects. “Umm. They’re a good team,” Thompson said after a January loss in Memphis. “Their record reflects that. But I don’t know, man, our team is pretty unique. We’ve kind of — especially in those early championship years — kind of changed the way the game was played. Yeah, they’re a good team, a tough one in the West, a possible playoff matchup down the road. We need to not take them lightly.”
