Warriors offseason outlook: It might finally be time for a new era in Golden State

TL;DR

The Warriors had a disappointing season with only 37 wins and struggled with injuries and trades. It may be time for a new era as their past performance levels decline.

Key points

Warriors won only 37 games this season
Team faced multiple injuries and made big trades
Warriors struggled to be a playoff threat
Stephen Curry turned 38 in March
Draymond Green's contributions are inconsistent

It'd be difficult to argue the Warriors deserved to find themselves in the playoffs.

The team won just 37 games, dealt with a plethora of injuries and made big in-season trades … but did not look like a genuine threat at any stage of the season.

While the Warriors momentarily turned back the clock against the Los Angeles Clippers in their first play-in game, it also very much felt like their last gasp of the season.

The days of the Warriors consistently outperforming their roster capabilities seem to be over, once and for all.

Stephen Curry turned 38 in March, and while he's the player most capable of turning back the clock, that simply can't be said of Draymond Green, whose value we only see once or twice a week, if we're lucky.

(His childish behavior at the end of the loss to the Phoenix Suns in their final play-in game is yet another reminder of how the aging Green — now 36 — is a depressing reminder that he's become more name than game, and his relevance is increasingly being reduced to his antics, as opposed to his relentless defensive qualities, which made him an all-time great.)

Now, the Warriors look ahead, but to what?
