The 2007-08 Golden State Warriors season was marked by a strong performance that ultimately fell short of the playoffs. Under the guidance of head coach Don Nelson, the team finished with a 48-34 record. Despite this impressive win total, they ended up ninth in the highly competitive Western Conference, missing the playoffs due to a tie-breaker with the Denver Nuggets, who also finished with 50 wins.
Key players for the Warriors included Baron Davis, who led the team in scoring and assists, contributing 21.8 points and 7.6 assists per game. Stephen Jackson also played a significant role, averaging 20.1 points, while young talent Monta Ellis emerged with an impressive 20.2 points per game and was named the NBA’s Most Improved Player that season.
The Warriors were known for their high-octane offense, leading the league in scoring with an average of 111 points per game. However, their defensive struggles were evident, as they allowed an average of 108.8 points per game, ranking among the league’s lowest in defensive efficiency. This imbalance played a crucial role in their inability to secure a playoff spot.
Despite the disappointment of missing the postseason, the Warriors’ performance was notable for its entertainment value and the emergence of young talent. The season set a foundation for a future transformation of the franchise, as the Warriors continued to evolve in the following years.
- Regular Season Record: 48-34
