However, a playoff berth still remains uncertain with massive changes possible on the last regular-season gameday.<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How Can the Warriors Qualify for the Playoffs?<\/strong><\/h2><p>The Golden State Warriors rose from the ashes of mediocrity after acquiring Jimmy Butler early this year. They now look completely different side after the arrival of Butler and are 25-8, running riot in the West. However, the recent few games have also exposed the Warriors&rsquo; bench.

James Harden&rsquo;s side has coincidentally always had answers when facing the Warriors. Even in the current season, the LA Clippers have a 3-0 clean sweep record, showcasing dominance over the divisional matchup.
