Oklahoma City Thunder vs Golden State Warriors NBA 2018 Match Preview
Overview:
The NBA Champions of 2017/18 season, Golden State Warriors, look to defend their title for the third year in a row as they play the first game of the new campaign against Oklahoma City Thunder.
Golden State Warriors were the best team in the league last time out. In the latter part of the season, they looked absolutely unstoppable. With a 4-0 clean sweep in the NBA Finals against Cleveland Cavaliers, the Warriors showcased how big the gap is between them and the rest of the teams. Furthermore, they haven’t rested on their laurels. The team has gone out and have signed one or two another proper superstars to have an even stronger bench strength. It will be a mammoth task for any NBA side to take away the crown of Champions from this team in 2018/19 season as well.
On the other hand, shrewd business dealing has made the Oklahoma City Thunders the darkhorses of the league. With players who have the ability to become superstars in their own rights in the roster, this team can actually cause serious problems. Coach Billy Donovan has been keeping the morale high of the players and has repeatedly spoken how happy he is with the squad. Everything will become clear when the team gets on the pitch against the defending champions on Tuesday.
