Los Angeles -- From this point on, the games are going to be for real. And even though the Warriors dropped their final four exhibition games, they're confident this isn't a preview of the regular season.

"A lot of people don't realize we haven't been together as a team a long time," said center Adonal Foyle, after Golden State ended the exhibition schedule with a 97-90 loss to Milwaukee at Staples Center. "We've got guys who were hurt (last year) coming back and new guys coming in. We still have to learn to play together. We're making good strides (though) there are a few things we need to be cognizant of.

"We just have to get it together -- talk a lot on defense, know where each other likes the ball. We're making strides."
