The Golden State Warriors sit outside of Play-In picture, as they are currently 11th in the Western Conference. They’re coming off a 1-5 road trip, where they were blown out several times. The losing has the defending champions in a rough spot mentally according to one of their leaders.
“Right now, I think we are very fragile,” Draymond Green said Friday after practice. “You start going through these things and then you start believing them. Once you start believing them, it becomes who you are. The only way to break them is by being mentally tough.”
Green remains confident in his team, but says they have to work to turn things around.
“It’s not something that’s going to be fixed with the snap of a finger,” Green said. “You’ve got to work through these issues to get that confidence. It’s just not showing up. As much as you’d like to think, ‘Oh, we’ll be fine, and this guy will come back.’ No, no, no. You’ve got to work (for) positive outcomes, positive feelings, that ultimately give you that boost of confidence.”
