Golden State Warriors v Washington Wizards
Golden State Warriors v Washington Wizards

The Golden State Warriors are on an absolute tear. They are blowing away every team in the league and are setting shooting records in almost every game. DeMarcus Cousins seems to have perfectly fitted in the All-Star lineup for the Warriors and they are once again looking like the team to beat.

The Warriors have a 33-14 record and have the best record in the Western Conference playoff standings. They had blowout wins in their last three matches against the Nuggets, the Clippers and the Lakers. Klay Thompson has got his shooting touch back and hehe destroyed the Lakers in the last game by making his first ten three point shots. He finished the game shooting an outrageous 17-20 from the floor.

Stephen Curry is the Warriors' best player and also leads them in scoring. He is second in the NBA in scoring averaging 29.2 points per game despite having a very poor night against the Lakers. He is shooting an incredible 45% from the 3-point line. In the earlier game against the Wizards at the Oracle Arena, Curry ripped them apart with 51 points in just three quarters.

Kevin Durant has been consistent like always. He is averaging 28 points and is also having a career-high 6 assists per game. His altercation with Draymond Green is now a thing of past and everything seems to be going great in the Warriors' locker room.

The Wizards have improved a lot in recent games. They had a horrible start to the season but have won 7 out of their last 10 games. They are the 10th ranked team in the Eastern Conference and have a 20-26 record. Bradley Beal has been superb for them and he will need to have a great game against the Warriors. The Wizards will not be pushovers at home and we can expect them to put across a decent challenge against the Warriors.

Here is the predicted starting lineup for the Warriors:

Stephen Curry (PG), Klay Thompson (SG), Kevin Durant (SF), Draymond Green (PF), DeMarcus Cousins (C).
