Has The NBA Ever Seen A Team Like This Years Golden State Warriors?

i wish the warriors would've brought back their same core from last year to battle the cavs in the finals for a great trilogy to the match up. Instead they ruined basketball.

Ruined basketball my ass. The Warriors are the most entertaining team since the Globetrotters.

Maybe next year they will pick AD or Ibaka, you know, to keep it competitive

Crazy how all the cats screaming we wasn't shyt two years ago are saying we're so good it's unfair now.

The entire team is soft. The best player and team leader weighs 160 lbs. Who's your enforcer? The big Aussie thats hurt all the time? Pretty much everyone on the team has a frontrunner mentality, all smiles and dancing when shyt's going good. No one has an edge to em. We have yet to see how they'll respond when they get roughed up.

2 years is not a lot of post season experience. The team as a whole doesnt have any significant deep playoff experience. You almost never see a team go from perennial 1st/2nd round exit to suddenly a championship. Generally it takes some failed, deep runs first.

Steph isnt the average point guard but he has to show and prove in the playoffs to prove he's special. As of now he's another talented guard whose fg% drops in the postseason.

Young head coaches always get established vet guys to help as assistants. Still none of them win a ring their first year coaching.

Im not off. Im older than you and I know more than you.

Air his ass all the way out.....

They might get bounced in the first round

-they still shoot too many jumpers
-team is soft, they can be bullied
-lack of experience
-rookie coach
-how many teams have won championships with a point guard as their best player?

Oh wait

1. EXPERIENCE
2. Rebounding, especially
3. Offensive boards, which GS is at
4. Size
5. Not committing turnovers
6. Getting to the line
7. Free throw %
8. Coaching experience
9. Veteran leadership
10. A top 2 offense in the league - GS is now ranked 3rd

PACE is also not in your favor. Playoffs are about forcing your will on the opponent and making them play your game. In the playoffs, the pace ALWAYS slows down so if your young, inexperienced squad has been used to playing at the league's fastest pace, they're suddenly gonna have to adjust on the fly to a style outside of their comfort level. And if you're playing a team who is used to that pace already or can play both styles, the battle is already half over before they even have to do anything. So you can say "this is different, we can just keep running"... but then May rolls around and its just not going down that way.

You say that as if 2015 wasnt a huge fluke/stroke of luck. Teams dont normally go from early round fodder to championship because things dont usually break perfectly in their favor. It did for Golden State, congrats
