Boos poured from the rafter of the Chase Center last night during the Golden State Warriors ugly 141-105 loss to the New Orleans Pelicans.
A crushing loss following their 133-118 loss to the Toronto Raptors three nights prior has sent the fans into a frenzy, leading many to be concerned about the seven-time NBA Championship Warriors.
The Warriors are currently 17-20 and are the twelfth seed in the Western Conference. Furthermore, they are 2-5 during their current home stretch and have yet to find the same recipe that made them so potent in previous seasons.
With the NBA Trade deadline looming, the Warriors hope to find answers on how to remedy their choppy season after two back to back losses in Chase Center.
Golden State Warriors: Shake It Up
The Warriors may need a shake-up following this recent stretch. Warriors star Stephen Curry said as much during their loss to the Pelicans.
"It's pretty evident that if things stay the same, that's the definition of insanity, right? Keep doing the same thing but expecting different results," Warriors guard Stephen Curry said.
Steph added, "you get to a point where you're trying to explain it, trying to figure out what can change specifically that can help us," Curry said. "Those conversations happen between games, in film sessions, in the locker room. But it's headed in the opposite direction. I don't know what to say about it. We're not used to this vibe around our team. ... It all sucks."
The Warriors' struggles this season have been ongoing. What has felt like an up-and-down season with inconsistent play from critical contributors like Klay Thompson and Andrew Wiggins along with injuries to players like Chris Paul; they haven't found any rhythm this season to say the least.
The Warriors have a list of heartbreaking losses on the season, which includes quite a few blown double-digit leads. In games so far this season, Golden State has blown leads of 24 points to the Sacramento Kings, 22 points against the LA Clippers, and 18 points in a last second loss against the Denver Nuggets.

Golden State Warriors: Is Hope On The Way?
There is some hope on the horizon for the Warriors. Draymond Green's imminent return following his indefinite suspension should be like a much-needed spark on this roster, one that hasn't been felt throughout this home game stint.
Green has been an integral part of the Warriors and has always given the team a much-needed edge on defense. Having him back on the roster could only help them going forward.
You can expect the Warriors to be active on the trade market. According to The Athletic's Anthony Slater, the Warriors and the Raptors have had conversations involving a trade surrounding All-Star Pascal Siakiam.
One proposal involved a trade that sent Chris Paul, Jonathan Kuminga, and first-round picks in the 2026 and 2028 Draft to Toronto for the two-time All-Star.
If traded to the Warriors, Siakam can bring new life to this struggling Warriors team looking to add consistency to this season and hopefully more championships to their dynasty in the future.
Reports from the Athletic NBA insider, Shams Charnia, say that everyone but Stephen Curry is available on the Warriors roster.
It's clear general manager Mike Dunalvey is willing to try anything to shake things up to save their season after a set of poor performances.
