The Golden State Warriors are sailing forward into the second round of the NBA playoffs after dispatching Nikola Jokic and the Denver Nuggets.
The team has been looking like its old self lately and is in fine form yet again.
That means that the possibility of winning another Finals isn’t completely out of the picture.
But before the Warriors get that far, they need to figure out what to call themselves.

The team has a new lineup featuring Stephen Curry, Jordan Poole, Klay Thompson, Andrew Wiggins, and Draymond Green.
But no super team is complete without having a nickname so the Warriors are asking their fans to give them one.
What should this strong, sometimes-unstoppable squad be called?
What’s In A Name?
The nickname for this lineup has been the topic of heated debate for a few weeks now.
Ever since head coach Steve Kerr focused on this group, the media has been trying to settle on a moniker for it.
One of the most popular names has been “3G” because this lineup consists of three guards.
However, people haven’t taken to that name.
Others have called it the “Death Lineup” or “Lethal Lineup”.
“Splash Mob” and “Super Splash Bros” have also been tried on for size.
The team needs to quickly figure out what to call this configuration because it’s only going to become more popular in the weeks ahead.
The Warriors will face off against the winner of the Memphis Grizzlies/Minnesota Timberwolves first-round series.
That means that the competition will be much tougher than the Nuggets.
So in the next round, this unnamed combination of players will need to be as powerful as expected in order to secure another win.
