Pretty good posts above. Again, I fucking hate them. So much. But guys, come on, they are a better team than last year.
I was one of the few people that thought maybe they wouldn't be. I thought maybe they did sacrifice too much depth. I thought losing Bogut would hurt their defense replacing him with Zaza.
None of that happen.
I was dead wrong. Completely. I underestimated that Durant is not only clearly a better offensive player (which was a given), but a much better defensive player than Barnes. He's just flat out better in all ways than him.
And the most frightening part is I still don't think Curry and Durant are on the exact same page, yet. This was expected, and they're still at this point the best team in the league right now. Those two should get better together, and that's pretty unfair.
