nah this league is guard driven and built around ball movement and 3 pt shooting. Golden State beats everyone in those categories and they also have Kevin durant. nobody will compete or keep up with them in the west as long as they stay together. 2 allstar bigs is great but unless the pels somehow add an elite guard and 3 pt specialist that can shoot 40+ percent from 3 they dont stand a chance. Cleveland has frickin Lebron Kryie and K Love and they are getting embarassed.

Spot on ---Not sure why you getting all the downvotes.(I said something similar the other day and was down voted to hell). The NBA is fricked. The (arguably?) second best player to ever walk the courts of the NBA can not get a single win on GS in the finals, never mind the fact that they also swept everyone else they played. Not sure how any other team can even begin to think about beating GS in the playoffs while this unit is healthy and intact.

Besides AD is only 24; No star wins at 24. Our window to win with AD will be 3-5 years from now. Just keep building and getting experience.

Durant going to the Warriors is the same as Magic jumping to the Celtics after losing to them in 84. Nothing is comparable to this and it will take a few teams to load up to possibly challenge them. Of course, it's never happened before because most players of that caliber could never imagine doing something like that. But today we are rather soft and usually like the easy way out so KD is the perfect "star" fir 2017.
