The biggest reason for the decline of the Golden State Warriors this season is the decline of their stars, typically Klay Thompson and Andrew Wiggins. Both of them have scoring parameters and accuracy from throws that have decreased significantly compared to last season. The other three pillars, Stephen Curry, Draymond Green and Chris Paul, are also all older. These 5 stars all receive too high salaries, and make the Golden State Warriors unable to upgrade the quality of their reserve squad.

Actually, this is a problem that has been predicted before. The leadership team at Chase Center has incentives for a group of star players after many years of dedication, without boldly reinvesting early. Of course, the season is still long for them to change, but they need to do it soon if they still want to compete for the title.
