Bogut wasnt dominant but he was a good passer, rebounder and defenderWhy? Take Durant off roster Steph won a chip with the same sort of talent and bench play.. Also we didn’t have a dominant center at all In our title runs
i'm not saying were not a good team. But I honestly dont think we are #1. Phoenix is just a bit of a machine and play consistently. They dont make a lot of the dumb errors that we do and would be a better bet over a 7 game series...especially with home court
And then Memphis has given us fits the last two years so it would be a tight series. Almost every year, a young team has a big upset against a contender (like the Hawks last year), Miami against Boston the year before, etc. Memphis has what it takes to be that team this year. And Cleveland has the potential in the East.
I think we are the 2nd best team. But PHX and MIL could get the best of us
