It has been nothing short of an offensively dominant season for the Golden State Warriors that has guided them all the way to their third straight trip to the NBA Finals up against the Cleveland Cavaliers.
The Warriors' explosive offense has helped them achieve many incredible marks behind their shooting throughout the year. According to Carl Steward of the San Jose Mercury News, Golden State has been nearly unbeatable when they knock down at least 10 three-pointers in a game.
Counting playoffs, Warriors are 69-2 when they make 10 or more 3-pointers. Astounding number, especially since the two losses went to OT.

The two losses that they suffered in those instances came early in the season to the Sacramento Kings and Houston Rockets. The defeat at the hands of the Kings came after Stephen Curry missed a wide-open layup in the waning moments of overtime that would have given his team the lead with four seconds left.
Meanwhile, the other loss came in double overtime as Kevin Durant had a chance to win the game at the buzzer in the first overtime before the Rockets took over in the second extra period. The Warriors may have come up short in both situations, but it shouldn't overshadow their dominance against the league when they are knocking down shots from beyond the arc.
All of this will be put to the test against the Cavaliers in the NBA Finals that will pit the two highest scoring offenses in this year's postseason. This could make for some huge offensive performances from both teams with the NBA title on the line.
