The first-round matchup between the Sacramento Kings and the Golden State Warriors may be the best offensive matchup in the playoffs right now.
A reporter claimed the Kings’ offense this season is better than any year of the Warriors’ dynasty, something Kyle Kuzma didn’t enjoy seeing.
“You guys annoy me with this logic and analytics lol. Kings offense real deal no doubt! but c’mon man, get real.”

Saying the 2023 Kings have a better offense than peak Golden State was never an honest take, to begin with. The reporter is a Sacramento-based journalist, so it’s not surprising he roots for his team and said that.
The Warriors with Kevin Durant are easily the greatest offensive unit we have ever seen and we might never see something like it again. No matter what the advanced analytics say, the offensive talent of a lineup with Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, and Kevin Durant is not matched by this Kings team.
Who Wins The Kings vs. Warriors First-Round Matchup?
The Kings and Warriors will put on an absolute offensive masterclass when the teams meet in the first round of the playoffs as the 3rd and 6th seeds. The Kings have a homecourt advantage and have had the best offense in the NBA this season. The Warriors are not far behind when it comes to their offensive potency this season either as the second-best team in the league behind the Kings.
Both teams have been inconsistent defensively, but the Warriors have better defensive personnel than the Kings. The experience of both teams also plays a part, with the Warriors being the most veteran playoff group in the league right now as the Kings have just ended a 16-year streak of not making the playoffs.
The Warriors are favored to win but the Kings are ready to shock the world. Nobody saw them finishing 3rd this season, so it’s time for them to continue upsetting people and give the reigning champions a fight.
