Why Dubs super fan Guy Fieri still has faith in team's chances

The mayor of Flavortown has spoken.

Despite the Warriors' up-and-down 2022-23 NBA season, Golden State super fan and world-famous chef Guy Fieri still likes his favorite team's chances to win it all -- again.

"Listen, we've seen it," Fieri said Sunday on "NBA GameTime." "We've seen the [Steph] Curry magic. Klay [Thompson], Draymond [Green] -- when this goes, I mean, as long as Curry stays healthy ... the whole program is just going to amp up to the next level when the playoffs happen.

"We've seen it happen so many times, I think we're going to see it again."

The Warriors have defied the odds time and time again, most recently doing so en route to their fourth title in eight seasons after winning the 2022 NBA Finals.

And Fieri, like Dub Nation, has enjoyed watching from the sidelines. It's clear that all those years of watching the Warriors achieve the improbable certainly has made the chef's Dubs faith iron strong.

The Warriors and Chef Curry need all the good vibes they can get, as the team clings to a top-six Western Conference playoff seed and attempts to avoid the play-in tournament. Their 112-110 loss to the Denver Nuggets on Sunday at Ball Arena didn't help, however.

But as Fieri said, the Warriors tend to look right at home in the postseason. With three regular-season games remaining, perhaps the best is yet to come.
