    Will GSW pay Barnes? I don't think they would. Losing Barnes would weaken them a little bit.

    KD would be a perfect fit.

    I don't think they would necessarily get better with KD... they're freakin 45-4.

    I don't see WB/KD resting much in the 2nd half unless the game gets out of hand.

    This reminds me of all the "lucky" talks throughout the offseason. On occassion the Warriors were not even mentioned as one of the championship contenders. All these must have rubbed the players certain ways, and set them on a mission all season:

    "I just want to say, 'I apologize for us being healthy. I apologize for us playing who's in front of us.'"
    "I apologize for all the accolades we've received as a team and individually. I'm very, truly sorry."
    "We'll rectify that situation this year." Adds: "I try to have fun with it."

    http://www.cbssports.com/nba/eye-on...for-all-the-accolades-weve-received-as-a-team

    So for those who sang the tune of the lucky Warriors all last year, how "predictable" was it?

    Agreed he's a perfect for ok any team he's an mvp top 3 player in the game.

    With that said gs has somthing special with that group. I don't think they need to mess with trying to integrate another mvp player on there roster. ik
    Not saying kd wouldn't do it but I just find it hard to believe that he would be okay with only 14-15 shots game and avg 20-23 ppg.

    No one knows but I just don't think kd wants to take a backseat role to curry while also sharing shots with thompson and to an extent green.

    If you're athletic enough to be able to play big minutes in the NBA... you have the ability to be a great defender if you want to be.

    Now, most can't put forth the effort to be a great defender AND have energy for the offensive end.. that's where the Warriors have the rest of the league by the balls.

    Cavs were the #1 favorite, followed by Spurs, then Warriors as the favorite coming into this season to win it all.

    Guess they will be favorite next year

    Blame the sharps for intentionally flooding the market on the Cavs, knowing full well that they'd be able to collect more by betting on GS with elevated odds.

    Care to see what the odds are now? I think you have to put up your first born to win a $1 on GS.

    See what happens when the game slows down. You just can stay in the game at least.

    I knew gs was good but and even pegged them as favorites to repeat but I had no idea they were 15-20 points better than all the other elite teams. If this continues they will have beat the top 3 teams behind them in wins by 15+ points.

    Insane.

    Season is over nobody is winning this year ladies and gents. Every team is in the hunt for 2nd place.

    This offseason is going to he really intersting. We're going to see a lot of collusion amongst the elite players trying to make a super team to beat the Warriors.

    In a 7 game series, it's a different approach.

    Durant and Westbrook have to combine for 100 in order for OKC to win.

    Because you slow the game down. That's the point.

    OKC isn't even shooting that well. They're shooting only 43%. And they're within 8. If I was OKC, I'm very happy where I'm at.

    Now you let your 2 stars decide the game.
