Everything is on the line for the Warriors today in Sacramento. Not just their season, but perhaps their dynasty as well.

Game 7 against the Kings isn’t just win-or-go-home for the Warriors; it’s win-or-break-up.

No team in the NBA spends more on player salaries than the Warriors. The payoff has been championships. But if the Warriors — a team that needed all 82 regular season games to claim their playoff spot in the Western Conference — lose in the first round to their younger, more frugal Northern California rivals, big, bold changes will come this offseason.

The Warriors are right when they say they’ve experienced everything there is to experience in the NBA Playoffs. But amid their incredible dynastic run, they find themselves in a situation today — a Game 7 on the road — that is one they’ve experienced just once.

That was in 2018, the Western Conference Finals, in Houston and there is little chance that the Warriors’ opponent this time around will follow the script of that game and miss 27 consecutive 3-point shots as the Rockets did that day.

So much has already changed for the Warriors since that Game 7 in Houston a half-decade ago. Assistant coach Mike Brown is now the head coach of the Kings. Kevin Durant is long gone, on his second team since leaving the Warriors, and the Warriors were playing for the right to face LeBron James — then a Cleveland Cavalier — in the NBA Finals.

James is with the Lakers now, Durant is with the Phoenix Suns and the Warriors could come up against both of them — if they can get past the Kings today.

And that’s no small task. The Warriors thought their experience would carry them through this NorCal showdown, and they were wrong. The Kings have proven themselves to be unflappable in this series, with their 19-point Game 6 win in San Francisco serving as a testament.

“They just outplayed us,” Warriors coach Steve Kerr said. “Sometimes this is what happens. This is the NBA. Everybody has got great players. Sacramento has had a hell of a year.”

“We’re human,” Klay Thompson said. “We’ve had plenty of bad losses on this dynastic run we’ve been on. But this is not the fourth loss of a series. This is a third, and it’s first to four. We are right there and we know we can go get one on the road.”

But that road environment will be unlike any other in the NBA. When the Warriors left Oracle Arena in Oakland (aka Roaracle), Sacramento’s Golden 1 Center took the throne as the league’s loudest arena.

It’s a weapon for a Kings team that posted the best offense in league history this season. It’s the kind of crowd that can swing a game, especially if the Warriors feed it with the kind of early-game sloppiness that has been a trademark of their play this season.

“It’s up to us to go to Sacramento and do everything we did tonight but opposite,” Thompson said after Game 6. “I know we will respond. I just know this team. I know these guys. I’ve played at the highest level with them and I know what we are capable of, and we will respond like the champions we are come Sunday.”

Amid so many changes, the Warriors’ core of Thompson, Steph Curry, and Draymond Green has remained. Collectively, they are yet to lose a Western Conference Playoff series.

Will today be the first time?

And will that mark the last time those three play together?

The stakes couldn’t be higher nor the environment more hostile.

If the Warriors have another gear — if all that playoff experience can find a place to manifest itself — it must come out today.

It’s all on the line for the Dubs, and these Kings — unlike those Houston Rockets a half-decade ago — won’t roll over easily.
