Cowherd on 'Speak For Yourself': Warriors will win fewer games with Kevin Durant

The Golden State Warriors won 73 games last season, then added Kevin Durant, and everyone screamed about what an unfair upgrade it was.

Maybe in the talent department, but not in the win column, Colin Cowherd says. After the casinos in Las Vegas set the over/under on the Warriors' win total at 66.5 this week, Colin's advice is to take the under. The Warriors won't win 67 games, he said Wednesday on "Speak For Yourself", and they might not win 60.

"Sixty-six wins! Bird did it once. Magic never did it in the regular season. Michael did it a couple times," Cowherd said. "Oklahoma City last year was loaded. They had 55 wins!"

Cowherd thinks 67 wins will be far from easy for the Warriors, considering their thin bench, lack of height and unpredictable chemistry after a roster overhaul. But Jason Whitlock disagrees.

"Sixty-seven doesn't sound easy. What it sounds like is what they've done the last two years," Whitlock said.
