You people are witnessing one of the greatest teams in NBA History, enjoy it guys.

[1987_Lakers]

- 67-15 last season that ended in a title
- 10-0 this season
- Curry is playing like a top 5 PG of all time at the moment
- Amazing supporting cast in K. Thompson/Green/Iggy/Barnes/Bogut etc
- Amazing offense with great ball movement and shooting
- Elite defense that is crazy versatile

Enjoy it guys.:cheers:

[RRR3]

Maybe we could enjoy if DrayFraudwasn't the least likable player of all time. And the chucking gerbil didn't celebrate like he won the lottery after every basket.

[HenryGarfunkle]

Yet lost 2 games to a crippled cavs team?

lol, not buying it. They're gonna choke in the playoffs against better superstar talent.

either the thunder or cavs. and the spurs likely beat them too.

We ARE actually WITNESS this time. Colluding with a guy that can only dunk in transition didnt do it for me, sorry Lebron. OUT goes Kobe, IN comes Curry! :bowdown: :bowdown:

[aj1987]

I still can't believe that Curry is shooting this well. He's making contested 30 footers like it's nothing. Definitely the GOAT shooter. The 2nd best shooter is a couple of tiers below him. :bowdown:

Props to the rest of the team as well. Terrific defense. Best in the league.

As unlikable as Green and Curry are (just their on court antics and not them as players are people off the court), you MUST give them respect for their play.

Curry might well end up being a 2x MVP, 2x Champ, and 0x FMVP after this season.

JK about the 0xFMVP part

They were inexperienced at that stage and were going up against a top 5-7 player of all time (LeBron) who was playing out of his mind, they adjusted and won 3 straight games pretty convincingly, remember....Detroit Bad Boys struggled vs MJ and the Bulls who were a one man show and many consider those Pistons teams to be top 10 ever.

You can't deny how dominant Golden State has looked in the last year or so.

[JimmyMcAdocious]

Seriously one of the best roster building jobs ever. They can play big, small, versatile, best defense in the NBA, arguably the best offense, everyone has their roles, everyone knows their roles, built around their star to perfection, and practically everyone is just entering their peak or did so in the last two seasons.

Some 2K abusing cpu trade logic shit.

Still can't touch Jordan's Bulls or 2000s Lakers. However, I love watching this Warriors team.

No matter how many 3s Curry make, Jordan is going to make one more crazy circus shot to counter it and nobody is going to stop him.

Also, no matter how many 3s Curry make Kobe and Shaq are going to counter with even more of an offensive assault and nobody is going to stop these two.

Are you really going to sit here and act like the Warriors are just another good team?

No team has come close to playing as good as Golden State in the last year or so, you are going off straight speculation, I'm going by facts. They won 67 games last season which btw is tied for 6 most wins all-time in a single year, they had the biggest margin of victory since the '97 Bulls and they are off to a 10-0 start this year so you know it isn't a fluke. Give this team some respect.

thunder are deeper this year too and actually have an offensive threat in the post.

they have the scoring ability, and the grit and toughness to beat the warriors. saying they have no chance is laughable

curry isn't the all around player westbrook and durant are, so when he inevitably has bad games in the playoffs the warriors are gonna be vulnerable

not at all, they're one of the best regular season teams of all time

but there are multiple superstars on other teams who i see beating them. and i never count out pop and the new-look spurs.

they're not the only great team this year. cavs are gonna be absolutely dominant when irving returns to form, and the thunder are lurking in the shadows trying to stay healthy for the playoffs. if they do stay healthy, watch the fck out!

I'm not saying Golden State will repeat as champions, but you can't deny that Golden State so far is the best team in the league by a good margin, OKC has some work to do, their defense is pretty bad and the supporting cast at the moment doesn't really look all that great.

Yeah, not once did I thought the Cavs would have a chance in any of those 3 final games. Trailing teams can to go on spurts, but if they can't change any of the momentum then it really wasn't as close as suggested. GSW was in full control of Game 4 through Game 6.

I'm not denying it, but they haven't played a healthy cavs or thunder team yet. they're beating up on mostly mediocre teams, which is what great teams do.

I think the thunder supporting cast is better than they've ever been, and have all the pieces to beat the warriors. someone like dion waiters with his versatility on d will be a big weapon. morrow's sharp-shooting, kanter in the post, a reliable backup PG, and the god kyle singler. just kidding

they have just enough to beat them, because westbrook and durant will be logging huge minutes, the depth the warriors have on the thunder wont be as big of an advantage.

The 2009 & 2010 Lakers with Fisher as the starting PG, Bynum playing injured and a pretty bad bench? Are you sure about that?

The Big 3 Heat who would routinely get raped on the boards, Bosh being inconsistent and having no Center?

My point is that Golden State as a team is much more complete and versatile than those teams, they are dominant on both ends of the court, can't say the same about the Kobe/Gasol Lakers and Miami.

[SouBeachTalents]

Is that why LeBron almost won FMVP despite his team losing?:facepalm

Lol, ignore that fakkit. Dude just makes nothing but negative comments

[90sgoat]

Depends on which rules.

If 90s rules then Curry becomes human because he will be hand checked from half court. He would still score a lot, but nowhere near this easy.

The 96 Bulls team also rapes this Warriors team on offense with essentially 3 big guards that can post up. Even Ron Harper would feast on Curry. Klay Thompson guarding MJ?

I must admit Curry is a special player from 3. I am not impressed with his drives or mid range though.

As the current rules now, Curry is probably close to the ultimate player.

I still am not entertained by this brand of 3 points only basketball, but no doubt they have a great deep team. As others have pointed out, it only works because of Curry though.

I think the Spurs beat them though. Too much size on offense and defense. They're also going to slow down the pace, make Curry run around screens guarding Parker. Tim Duncan in the paint will allow for guarding Curry closer and giving up the penetration. That seems to be his only flaw, not elite at mid range jumpers or floaters.

[knicksman]

dumbrook's relentless aggression will bother the **** out of curry though

we're seeing the warriors now with absolutely no pressure. the electrifying atmosphere of the playoffs is when the dogs come out, westbrook lives for that shit

thunder are deeper this year too and actually have an offensive threat in the post.

curry isn't the all around player westbrook and durant are, so when he inevitably has bad games in the playoffs the warriors are gonna be vulnerable

thunder in 6

LOL in the end its all about which team has the player that can make tough shots at the toughest moment(clutch) and neither durant nor westbrook could do that. Durant cant still create his own shot when it matters while dumbrook can but not efficient enough to be reliable. Thats why curry won coz hes the combination of both. Creating his own shot while having the efficiency of durant. Its the same reason why bran needs a superteam coz he knows he is shit come clutch time. But he has no wade and irving and love arent proven yet. So in the end, this is still GSW.

Completely agree, it's a good cast that is pretty deep with amazing chemistry. Draymond Green is the heartbeat of this team, the things he does on the court is one of the reasons why they are so dominant and it goes unnoticed sometimes.

This team kind of reminds me of the Bad Boy Pistons in a way, both teams get their offense from the guards, both are great on defense, both have very good benches, Draymond Green is Dennis Rodman, the only difference is Detroit didn't have the explosive offense Golden State has.

I said that last year's Warrior's team was one of the all-time greatest, but they may be even better this year.

As a side-note...Golden St. is not only 10-0, but they have a +17.1 ppg differential.

Still, in their 33 game winning streak, the '72 Lakers just annihilated their opposition, posting a +15.6 ppg margin in those 33 straight games.

But I can't shake the feeling that this Warriors team benefits more from the differences of their particular era than almost any team ever. That's not exactly a bad thing; they're playing within the given confines of the game incredibly well. But I can't shake the feeling that this is an "era-specific" team.

I said "almost any team ever". To cover my bases because of teams like that.

Thing about the Lakers though, is they could generate points if they couldn't run. I'm not so sure this Warriors team could consistently generate points if there were no threes.

Just felt the need to point it out cause inevitably, if it hasn't already happened, you will have idiots say things like if Harden, Westbrook, CP3, or whoever were in Curry's place, they'd be just as successful, just like they do with every all-time great. Part of the reason this team has such great chemistry is cause of the way Curry plays and cause they are even more confident due to the success they've already attained, which they probably never would've gotten with any of those guys.

[Showtime80']

Ironic that a guy with the name 1987 Lakers knows very little about that team saying they are era specific because "everyone ran"

The 80's Lakers won 5 titles against three great all time teams playing completely different styles in the process, break neck fast break speed against the early 80's Sixers, mid tempo combination half court/fast break against the mid 80's Celtics and grind it out mainly half court with opportunistic fast breaks against the late 80's Pistons, this last one was with Kareem running on fumes!

And this was with the old TRUE BASKETBALL RULES that didn't overprotect star players so they HAD to worry about hand checking and getting smashed if they went down the lane.

The Warriors are a nice little team for this rule altered perimeter oriented soft NBA. They'd be out of their element against teams like the 80's Celtics, Lakers, Pistons or Sixers who were physical and could play ANY style you through at them due to the STACKED rosters they had.

The Warriors played at slower pace in the playoffs last year and still won. No rules will stop a superstar like Curry.

They win in a league were there are NO DOMINANT centers or inside forces and the rules are catered to the advantage of perimeter players for the last 20+ years.

I still can't believe that Curry is shooting this well. He's making contested 30 footers like it's nothing. Definitely the GOAT shooter. The 2nd best shooter is a couple of tiers below him. :bowdown:

Props to the rest of the team as well. Terrific defense. Best in the league.

As unlikable as Green and Curry are (just their on court antics and not them as players are people off the court), you MUST give them respect for their play.

Curry might well end up being a 2x MVP, 2x Champ, and 0x FMVP after this season.

JK about the 0xFMVP part

The best part of it all is that Lebron is pretty much forgotten, and the face of the NBA has shifted to Curry.

2/6 run not bad, but it's much more exciting to see what the future holds for a guy that is 1/1 and will finish the season with a 32ppg ave on high efficiency.

Such a fun team to watch and Curry is a killer.
Kobe is passing the torch to him and he'll become my new favorite player to watch.
Kobe is averaging around 16.5 PPG on 32% shooting. What on earth makes you think he has the right to hold the so-called "torch"? He can barely hold on to the ball these days :roll:

Top 5 PG is really cutting Curry short right now. He has looked like a Top 3 PG All-Time. 4th at worst.

I hate Curry, but he is playing like god right now. He won't sustain this for the whole year, teams need to game plan better for him.

I think this team might have the greatest small ball lineup in history.

Curry
K. Thompson
Iggy
Barnes
D. Green

Look what that lineup did to the Clippers in that 4th quarter to close the game.

20-0:eek:
