The Warriors are absolutely the most talented team in the league maybe ever but the one team I’m personally concerned about is the Bucks. The Rockets were made to beat a small quick team. The Bucks are a counter to that. They are a terrible mixture of length and skill. They actually still play Moreyball despite being big and they some how shoot the 3 better than the Rockets. Look at their lineup they started the other day!! Or who else do you worry about?
All teams. Take everyone serious. We aren't locked in like last year and we need to get back to that.
As for playoff matchups, I hope we don't face the Blazers. Lillard has killed us in the past and they seem to matchup well with us. Not nearly as concerned by the Nuggets, OKC, Jazz, etc.

It will always be the Warriors until we finally beat them but a championship isn't guaranteed this season if we do, the East is much better.
It's still one team to beat and that's GS. some of these other teams improved but they were playing catch up with GS and Hou. And there was a pretty wide gap at that. Btw the celtics won't be going away quietly when the playoffs come around.
Yeah, if the Warriors get taken down by anyone, it doesn't make whoever beat them the favorites. It just means that every team's eyes start bugging out because they realize the field is wide open for the first time in years. Any team that can bring a lot of length against the Rockets will be a problem, especially with their defensive and rebounding struggles.
Fear: GS, Raptors, Bucks Overrated: 76ers, Thunder, Nuggets Going nowhere in the nba finals, Celtics, Blazers, Jazz
Warriors, in general. But definitely the Raptors. Danny Green and Kawhi Leonard are probably the best defensive wing duo in the league. Siakam is an up-and-comer, who seems to already have arrived. Gasol is doing well for them as yet another solid defensive player. And Lowry is Lowry. And ofc, can't forget about LINSANITY.
