Here’s Golden State Warriors GM Mike Dunleavy Jr. on improvements that the team needs to make this season.
(via Golden State Warriors):
“I think the biggest areas that we need to improve, we’ve got to get back to defending at a high level. We’ve got to be in the top five, six, seven in the league in defense at least. That’s really been the recipe here all along. You talk about the championship years, certainly back to ’22, I think we were second in the league in defense. We got off to a good start, we defended. So I think we look at this roster, I go down the list, everybody I think can guard their position. I think guys can guard multiple positions. I don’t see a lot of holes defensively in one-on-one individual matchups, which is a good place to start.
“And then from there, we’ve got to be better in transition both ways. But really, offensively, we want to improve our offense. One of the ways to do that is just to get out and run more, but when we do, we’ve got to be efficient in finishing and scoring, getting fouled, whatever it is. We’ve been pretty poor the last couple years at not only the volume we’ve gotten outran, but also how effectively we’ve done it. So, those are the two areas I think we’d like to hone in on.”
