What happened: The Warriors ranked 22nd in scoring at 114.6 points per game and 21st in rebounding at 42.3. Their 28.9 assists per game ranked sixth.

Why it matters: Golden State allowed 115.2 points per game, leaving its average scoring margin below zero. Strong ball movement cannot erase a defense and rebounding profile that failed to produce a winning season.
