Warriors defense and rebounding leaves much to be desired...especially when guys are having an off shooting night

It's interesting because future questions will beg how much the acquisition of Durant was really needed, when it also meant the departures of key players that really added to the depth and versatility of the team.

The Golden State of yesteryear was a team of versatility and a "****-you" offence that teams spent entire games trying not to trigger.

I'm not sure you call Golden State a "versatile" team anymore. If the Spurs get George Hill next year & keep the rest of their roster they will absolutely crush them in the playoffs. As presently constituted the Spurs have a massive hole at the PG spot & using Kawhi to guard Steph will just result in some career shooting nights by Kevin Durant (who'll guard him? Green? Then who'll guard Klay?).

Golden State also much more motivated to just dominate the whole ****ing year last year. I think they are just coasting to an extent.

their kids will hit a wall. I think you can explain this early-season success like you explain a blind squirrel finding a nut.

Maybe, but they play a great style and share the ball. Ingram hasnt even "broken out" yet and if you think that is going to happen this year, they still have a lot of room for improvement this year. They have already beaten 3 playoff teams from last year.

Negged for even suggesting the possibility that Hill will leave Utah for SA.

Think of the hoards of money they're gonna throw his way. He also called Pop one of the best people he's ever met/one of his most favourite people ever earlier this season when we played the Spurs.

I have my worries. It's honestly quite likely that one member of our core is going to be poached-- whether it's Hood, Hayward, Favors, or Hayward. It'll probably come down to which player is most replaceable with another young athlete on our roster.

Enjoy 2017 while it lasts. We might not have this capable, and deep of a team for a while. The West seems flawed and in disarray.
 
Losing Hill would suck but I trust the process and trust Exum. He needs to just work on his handle like a madman. Every day for like an hour a day.

Not to mention he met his wife in San Antonio, so he still has strong ties to the area.
