Are the Warriors that Good?

They are even better. They were maybe 50-60 % of their potential. Which is exactly why the Jazz need to get their ish together and move the dang ball.
 
The warriors won a record number of games last year.

They lost in the final seconds of the finals in game 7 after enduring a super human performance by the Jordan of this generation and a devastating injury to their center, a suspension from Green, and a Curry injury.

Instead of losing people this offseason, they added Kevin Durant.

They literally have the best PG, SG, SF, and PF in the NBA in their starting lineup.

Yes, the warriors are hella good. Like all time good. Their record over the past 2 years shows it.

Obviously Green (or Durant, or whoever the **** plays the SF at GS) is not better than Lebron. /facepalm

PG and SG is debatable. But ya, they're great.
 
Of course they are fantastically good... They got beaten last year thanks to 3 elements conspiring together :
1/ Lebron is just a fantastic player, will retire as the second best all time behind MJ. He is that good.
2/ Curry was injured and limping most of the Playoffs, not at his peak.
3/ Green got suspended for being stupid and that created a panic syndrom..

They now added KD to the mix.. It's like the early 80s Celtics adding Julius Erving to the roster.... I mean it's massively scary.
 
2 top 5 players, 3 top 10 players, 4 top 15 players. If they all stay healthy and continue to be who they are, 4 HOFers in their prime.

They were 73-9 and then added Kevin effing Durant. If they finish this off and go 16-1, 16-2, I'm ready to call them the greatest ever.

Granted Durant and Curry will be HOFers but I don't think you can say that about Green and Thompson yet -- still think Hayward is better overall than Klay. Iggy is as good as either of them, or was. So you have five standout players. But they did lose Barnes, Bogut, and Ezeli from that 73-9 team, though Durant more than compensates, as well as getting Pachulia and McGee.

I still think they're beatable, Magic and Bird's teams were better, as well as the Bulls.

I say no, they aren't, they're a front-running team and weak-minded. You can beat if you get a lead, as LeBron showed last year by nearly single-handedly demoralizing them and allow Irving to then finish them off.

We're only go to beat them if we play a perfect game with no turnovers and dead-eye 3pt shooting, rebounding is our only clear advantage. We can keep up with their shooting somedays though which is huge compliment.

Yeah they are that good :cool: I think they're as good as the late 90s bulls and Kyrie is just as responsible for beating them as Lebron.

I enjoy watching them, I agree though they aren't that much better than last year, they had to give up many bench players like Harrison Barnes, Ezeli, Barbosa, Speights for Durant but he's still a guy who can single handily take over a game and score 50 points!!!!

Curry and Durant don't have good chemistry in my opinion, and especially Curry, Thompson, and Durant. Seems they might be better without Durant. So, enough of Locke's nonsense that they have 2 of the 5 best players. What good is that without good chemistry between them. When the Bulls had Michael and Pippen, they complemented each other with their skills. Curry and Durant do not; they're both scoring machines.

They're beatable and I will not be surprised if they don't win the championship this year.

I think they are good, but they are going up against a weak NBA. There isn't a team in the west that's going to give them an issue. They'll be challenged when they get to the finals. . Right now there's nobody in the league that can stop them except for James. Back in the day there were many teams that were good. That's why Jordan's bulls are so highly respected. The warriors have Thompson, Curry, Green and Durant!!! That's ridiculous. I hope the Cavs smash Them

They may well sweep the conference finals too. They've got two MVPs, 4 all-stars, limitless offensive firepower.. Curry plays defense. Durant plays defense. Draymond is the DPOY frontrunner. They're unselfish. They enjoy playing together.
 
basically if they operate at only 60% capacity they can't lose. Overly good.

would be good if they just sweep and wreck everybody from here on out. 4-0 finals as well just to shove it up Silvers panzy *** for allowing such team stacking.
