I don't discount the Bucks are good. But it seemed like the Warriors weren't gelling fully plus they couldn't throw a stone in the ocean no matter what they did. But you look at the game against the Bulls (#1 in the east) and everything worked for them. Person missing from the game before... Klay Thompson. I think while he's back, he's not in the rhythm yet of the "team" they have. 941 days is a long time to be gone. And he's getting put in a rotation that's got a rhythm already. That's gonna throw things off for sure.
