    I mean, the OP isn't wrong. He's acknowledging one team is better and he's right. What's wrong?

    I thought this was a fan site. Go away.

    Curry is hurt all the time. Weak

    Draymond thinks he is a better offensive player than Durant apparently.

    Klay is soft....over glamourous JJ Redick

    Durant is already looking forward to joining
    LeBron in LA. They have been spotted leaving night clubs together many times.

    Enjoy the rest of your team's season troll.
    Might be the end of a dynasty.

    Somehow they can assembled those weak and soft players and make it a team winning ships.

    Oh yeah, Draymond glued them together.

    They wouldn’t have won the last two if not for Durant carrying them to and thru the finish line.

    Do you doubt there is strife among the team? See Draymond suspension. Lip readers say Durant says, “That’s
    why I’m leaving (while in the huddle as they were separated)!”

    All good things come to an end.....eventually

    The sausage has 2 ends.

    I want to see some competitive ball again, so them breaking up rather sooner than later is good for the NBA.

    I dun see GSW being done either if they keep Dray, Steph and Klay.

    I mean the Duncan led Spurs never won a Back 2 Back Championship IIRC... but they did win every 2nd year for half a decade.

    GSW will be just another contender, not winning it every year.

    Good luck with thinking GSW can/will stay together beyond this season.

    Curry $37.5M (18/19)...........goes to $40.2M (19/20)
    Draymond $17.5M (18/19)...goes to 18.5M (19/20)
    Livingston $8M (18/19)........ $7.7 19/20......non guaranteed)
    Iggy..........$16M (18/19).......to $17.2M (19/20.....non guaranteed). Remember the team says he was the difference.
    They would have swept everyone if he was healthy. Good luck giving him a raise.

    Klay’s dad said no extension this past summer because they want to test the market. $19M (18/19)....pay the man (FA)

    Durant........$30M (18/19).......($31.5M......FA/players option)........good luck......He wants a raise.

    Just Curry and Durant alone could be $80M.

    Amazing how people are great at spending other people’s money. Not realistic.

    If you say so.

    Was rather intrigued by the massive talent that the organization brought together.

    Father time and the Collective Bargaining Agreement stay undefeated.

    No doubt. The refs will be in full force again this playoff. I’m not saying they won’t win the championship
    this season. I’m saying the Rockets would have beaten the Warriors if CP3 hadn’t gone down.

    Durant was all world amazing two years ago vs the teams in the playoffs and carried them to that championship.

    Last year the Warriors slipped by Durant Isolations while Curry looked bad. Rockets make Curry work and they
    couldn’t hide him. Cavs were easy after us as the Cavs couldn’t force Curry to bust his tail.

    No Durant next year and the variables/dynamics change. Cousins is on a minimal contract and probably moves
    on as well......after netting a bigger contract. Draymond is also quoted as wanting an extension after the end
    of this season.
