The Golden State Warriors are the defending NBA champions, and Klay Thompson thinks they are ready to do damage in the playoffs.
On Friday night, Thompson told reporters that when at full strength, he thinks the Dubs are the team to beat not just in the West, but in the entire league.
“I don’t see a team who can beat us in a 7-game series when we’re healthy,” Thompson said.

At 43-38, the Warriors are in fifth place in the Western Conference with one game to play. They could stay in that fifth spot or fall all the way down to the Play-In Tournament depending on how things shake out.
The NBA world seems to have mixed feelings on Thompson’s take.
“Facts everyone [gonna] hate us when the Warriors make it to the finals AGAIN and Curry gets his 5th,” a Warriors fan said.

If the playoffs started today, the Warriors, who could be at full strength assuming Andrew Wiggins returns in the playoffs as expected, would face the Phoenix Suns in the first round.
