The Golden State Warriors have suffered a lot of losses this season, 20 to be exact. They have not lost these many games since the 2013-14 season, when they exited the playoffs in the first round and were not the Warriors everyone know now. This season has been exciting for them in different ways and they still are unstoppable.

They have the arguably the best shooter in league history in Steph Curry, along with the 2nd best shooter in the league in Klay Thompson. They have a back to back finals MVP in Kevin Durant, and a defensive player of the year candidate almost every year in Draymond Green.

Given all these talents at their disposal, they now also have DeMarcus Cousins, who before his Achilles tear, was probably the best center in the league. They can go big when they want, they can switch to the Hamptons 5 when they want. They probably have the best squad this league has seen in a long time and it does not seem like this team can be stopped so easily.

In the game against the Nuggets, it was Klay Thompson who came out on top with a great performance, scoring 39 points, making 13 of his 22 shot attempts. He made up for Steph's lack of scoring tonight, where he could score just 17 points, shooting 37.5% from the field. Durant was on point too, scoring an efficient 26 points, shooting 67% from the field.

DeMarcus Cousins shot less than 50% on the floor, but scored 13 points along with 6 rebounds, 6 assists, 3 steals and 6 massive blocks as he turned in his most efficient performance in a long time.

The Warriors might be unstoppable this season if they keep turning in performances like this.
