I'm so sick of hearing GSW are stacked.

Lets be fair,they are stacked when compared to bad teams BUT a season record of 64+ wins would entail them to be compared to the cream of the crop.

Let's compare them to say MJ's bulls...

Would you trade Jordan, Pippen, Rodman and Steve Kerr
for Curry, Thompson, Bogut and Iguodala?

Or Celtics Big 4?

Garnett, Allen, Pierce and Rondo
for Curry, Thompson, Bogut and Iguodala?

Or Miami superteam?
Lebron, Wade, Bosh and allen
for Curry, Thompson, Bogut and Iguodala?

Or lakers 3 peat team?
Shaq+ Kobe+ Fisher + (filler)
for Curry, Thompson, Bogut and Iguodala?

Don't know about you, but unless you are a horrible GM I would say no to all...so how are they stacked (Compared with other great teams)?

they have more than just Curry Thompson, Bogut and Iggy, you jackass

they also got Draymond Greene, David Lee, Harrison Barnes, Mareese Speights and Shaun Livingston.

there's a reason why their "MVP" only plays 32 minutes a game.

they're so stacked a guy who was averaging 18/10 for the past three years only plays 15 minutes a game now.

If you play well as a team, that gets misconstrued as stacked for some reason.

Wait, three guys that should be DPoY on one team isn't stacked?

Big leads.

And it is silly to act like current Iggy, Speights, and Livingston make a team stacked. Also, the Warriors have operated well even while some of those guys, like Bogut and Lee, have been injured.

They're more like a deeper version of mid-00s Pistons than threepeat Lakers. It depends on whether you would call those Pistons team stacked.

Warriors are overall more stacked than Shaq's Lakers. Lakers were only more top heavy with Shaq + Kobe.

They have like a top 5 player at every position.. multiple DPOTY contenders of which none are from the 2 all-stars... of course they're stacked.

Stacked is not the same as top heavy.

Stacked = Deep and well constructed team. Doesn`t imply ATG core. 2015 GSW

Top heavy = ATG core. Not necessarily deep. 90s Bulls/3peat Lakers.

Stacked + top heavy = 86 Celtics, 87 Lakers.

90s Bulls are also deep.

90s Bulls are also deep.

Role players of 90s Bulls are not better than role players of 15 GSW or 04 Pistons, but they were perfect to compliment the ATG core

The spot up 2-3 shooter
The PG with nice skills and D
The serviceable centers

That's why Bulls also stacked + top heavy

Lol, those guys are not even stars right now. David lee is not even averaging 10ppg. Livingston? LMAO! That guy once played in the D League. Draymond green was a 2nd round pick.

LOL, I can't even believe you mention those guys like it mean anything

How about the 60's Celtics?
Bill Russell
Tom Heinsohn
Clyde Lovellette
John Havlicek
Frank Ramsey
Satch Sanders
Sam Jones
K.C. Jones
Bob Cousy

9 Hall of famers...Yeah but, Draymond green or Shaun livingston can compare...

Just goes to show how stacked they are.
