Which I would rather watch any day, over a boring ass team that has games with scores like 82-80.
So in short the Warriors jiggle the keys in front of you and you clap and laugh. Enjoy it when the Warriors score 108 points per game in the playoffs and allow 115 points per game.

By the way the Warriors aren't even the best offense in the league. They score a lot because they play a fast pace, but their PPS and offensive efficiency are not tops in the league. For example, the Jazz are a better offense than the Warriors.

<b>PPS</b>
Utah - 1.32 (3rd)
Golden State - 1.27 (9th)

<b>Adjusted field goal percentage</b>
Utah - 52% (3rd)
Golden State - 51% (6th)

<b>Offensive efficiency</b>
Utah -110.0 (2nd)
Golden State - 109.4 (4th)

Just think you focus so much on offense, and have such a shitty defense, but you still can't even manage to be the best offensive team in the league. Utah is a better offensive team. That must be tough to swallow.
