The Warriors are in the midst of a 3 game skid and are looking vulnerable. Right now they are playing the Mavs on the 2nd game of a road back-to-back.

Here is the rest of their remaining schedule. Feel free to predict their remaining record and playoff seed (or lottery rank).

Current Record: 41-32. Last ten games they have gone 5-5. They are currently the 6th seed and are

They have 1 back-to-backs left.

3 road games vs. 6 homes games.

4 games left vs. teams with a .500% or better record.

5 left vs teams with a record worse than .500%.

Current Streak Lost 1 in a row

I'm hoping they did too well to start the season off and can't tank, provided they start losing. Just don't make the playoffs, GS! I hate to root for the Lakers, but I must.
 
Bogut is only playing every other game or so and for somewhat limited minutes.
Teams are learning to take the ball out of Curry's hands.
David Lee's having a good year, but other players on that team can't win games without Curry lighting it up.
Jarret Jack is actually important to their success, and he's been out with injuries.
The problem here is that there aren't many teams in the West who will push them down more than a spot or two unless they come unraveled.

Also, they've been going through a tough stretch in their schedule. They have more road games at this point than we do.

Cy Alert: There should be a list up there on the original post that updates their positioning. Saves us time from going to NBA.com just to look up the standings.
 
With how many home games the Warriors have left, I don't think them missing the playoffs is a very likely possibility.
 
The Warriors' pick is at #20 currently. Teams that could pass them up overall would be Brooklyn, Atlanta and Houston. Maybe that pick gets up to #18. Maybe.

I don't see Portland or LA Lakers catching GS nor Utah. I think we're looking at picks around 19 and 22. Just good enough to get players like Almond, Koufos, etc. In other words, no immediate help, perhaps a bust or two and - at best - a guy who will take 4-5 years before developing into a rotation player. The again, with the way Ty develops young guys, maybe we get a player who helps another team after Utah uses him as a throw-in on a trade.
