Sure, we've had super teams before. But in all reality, we've never seen a team built before that should be so insanely dominant and heavily favored to win the next few championships as the Warriors are today. Ratings aside, it makes the league a worse product as a whole to have one team be so ridiculously dominant, with virtually zero legitimate rivals for the title. People with a normal, healthy mentality about sports aren't interested in seeing user customized NBA2k/Madden style teams destroying any and all competition IRL. Anyone who disagrees is either a Warriors homer or an NBA fanboy/fangirl in full cope mode.

I think after this year there are a lot of question marks in GS. 2019 yes is a lock (barring injury which almost derailed 2018, they weren't so dominant in the playoffs) but after that who knows? More mileage on them, not that young anymore, other superteams forming, maybe Klay or Dray leaves, etc.

Winning 3 in a row is really really hard. 4 is insanity, takes you back to the 1960s Celtics. I just don't see the Ws are locks to win 4 in a row.. Not even close.

So you're saying that they're the greatest team of all time and that we should just cancel the season.

I am so looking forward to the Eastern Conference playoffs round 1 between the 4 seed Wizards and 5 seed Heat. What a meaningful series!!!

Personally, I despise the OP. For the simple fact that I like to be lied to. It gets me by.

This thread seriously got moved to the "fouled out" section? Wow. It's fascinating how some of you can't take a good ribbing once in awhile.

Why would you be upset?

Normally, stupid threads just get deleted outright.

This one, however, was stupid enough that it got to come here and be with the other threads that were too stupid to just delete outright.

So, it's really kind of a compliment.

The good news is that Jerry West is no longer consulting the Warriors, so eventually they will not be able to maintained what they have done.

I’m eager to see this team play while completely healthy. However, that eagerness will fade quick. Itd be nice if they dominated the regular season and then crashed and burned in the playoffs. We can all dream, right?

Human nature takes over after success like the Warriors have had and they become lazy and complacent and jealousy between teammates takes over. That is why dynasties don't last; especially in the NBA which is dominated by "look at me" type people.
You needn't worry about a Warrior dynasty. They will implode upon themselves.
