Regular season

The Warriors got off to a 12-6 start thanks to their talented cast of rookies and veterans. Late in the season, they were still in a playoff hunt with a 36-34 record before losing 7 of the next 9 games as the Houston Rockets and the Kansas City Kings got red hot and passed the Warriors and advanced to the playoffs.
