Steph is 32 with aging as a guard comes losing quickness and he has durability concerns the spacing around him is also not the same which makes him more guardable. He will be good but he is at the latter stage of his prime.
Is D'Angelo going to be traded or is he apart of this team moving forward. He can possibly be flipped for more pieces who knows?
Klay is coming off a torn ACL and is about to hit 30. I see him having a career year next year though. Some guys come back stronger after torn ACL's and I think the Warriors will lean on him more.
Dray is washed.Paschall will replace him he is a far better scorer than Dray but nowhere near the defender, passer, or rebounder.
Wiseman is still going to be a rookie one and done big at the end of the day. He is no Duncan.
The Warriors also lost one of their biggest advantages their home court. Oracle has historically been one of the loudest and most hostile and supporting environments in the league that feel just isn't felt in gentrified San Francisco.
This team isn't very good defensively on paper and doesn't seem to have much depth with not much financial flexibility. I don't fear this. I think the teams that will run the next 3 years are the Lakers with LeBron's last dominant years+AD, the Clippers with the PG-13 and Kawhi duo, the Nets when KD returns, and I believe the Raptors will acquire Giannis and will win another title.
I could see Denver making a run as they are an elite scorer away from being a championship contender. Murray isn’t it and Jokic can’t be your #1 option and they don’t have the time to wait on Porter Jr (which sucks for him). He can the #1 option, but they can’t afford to wait on him to become what people think he will be. It’s essentially the Fultz and Philly situation all over again.
They really should have made a run at Bradley Beal and still should when he’s allowed to be traded again.
