No Klay Thompson. No more Kevin Durant. No more Andre Iguodala. No more Shaun Livingston. And still, nobody saw a Warriors season quite like this coming during the inaugural season at Chase Center.
Entering Tuesday, the Warriors (13-48) own the worst record in the NBA. There have been plenty of bumps in the road -- and a fractured left hand for Steph Curry -- for this young, injured Golden State team. Still, they're finding ways to keep it light with little turmoil in the public's eye.

This is lighthearted and all fun and games, however, it serves a bigger purpose in the long run. Eric Paschall, Marquese Chriss and Juan Toscano-Anderson all are hopefuls to be a part of the Warriors' future.

Even Draymond Green, who leads the league in technical fouls with 14 this season, mostly has been under control and displayed solid leadership for this downtrodden team. And then there's Curry.
As the two-time MVP fights to get back on the court -- his target return date of March 1 was pushed back -- Curry spent Monday in Santa Cruz scrimmaging with the Warriors' G League affiliate and fully embraced the experience.
There have been times of frustration, there's no doubt about that. But the Warriors haven't unraveled this season at all. They have their eyes set on the bigger picture.
