I don’t see how that’s a fair comparison at all. The Warriors main core won a title before Durant arrived. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That team should easily be able to win a first round series against a lower seed, but if they get matched up with a fully healthy Clippers, Lakers or GSW - yeah I'm not betting on them in that matchup. But that's not to say they aren't legitimate or Mitchell isn't a superstar (he is) and Gobert and Conley are definitely top 25 players. Just a case of there being some immensely talented teams out west. I'm on board with @showtime but you and I are basically saying the same thing.

Signed LeBron, traded for AD, before that the biggest FA signing was when? 1998? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curry and Dryamond alone aren't enough to earn a top 8 seed out West, imo. If Klay comes back before the all star beak, maybe they can sneak into the playoffs. However I can't see them (as it stands) being better than any of those other teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Added LeBron and AD to be worse than the Utah Jazz. Lmao. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will D'Angelo Russell remain on the team that long? I hope so and would think so... Also, can Curry, Draymond, and Looney carry the team into the postseason and remain healthy long enough to win? They all have been fairly injury prone. If all of those players are healthy and right including Klay actually being 100% then yes, the Warriors are arguably the best team in thr NBA playoffs again.

dtait93 Posted July 6, 2019 Share Posted July 6, 2019 @NYRaider how is Mitchell as a defender? Utah is the most complete team in the West imo. Shot creators, elite 3 point threats, and elite rim protection...not sure what to make of their perimeter defense though I know Conley was good, but not sure now Edit: and a fantastic coach and system to boot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MOSteelers56 Posted July 6, 2019 Share Posted July 6, 2019 I think people are sleeping on the Conley/Mitchell combo. I think the Jazz will be competing for the top spot in the West. Conley's a stud. Also, man I'm excited for next season. Such a deep league. Tons of talent spread out with tons of fun young teams. It's going to be a blast.

With a much better supporting cast. The big 3 were also all in their mid-20s and not coming off torn ACLs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
