why?

Do we really need to be reminded we got scorned by Durant by handing his team its own thread?

Not saying that this team is the by far the most likely to get to the finals.

But some posters here have been acting like they are the dream team out there.....hmm.....

Its going to take some time for the starting 5 to get comfortable playing each other and for Kerr to figure out the best combinations to support them with the rest of the rotation.  Get 'em now while they're beatable.  Eventually they're going to figure it all out.  Kerr is too good of a coach.

I'm hoping that Dray grows into a full locker room cancer.  He's grown into maybe my least favorite player in the NBA.

Their play in the WCF and NBA Finals ultimately turned me off on the Warriors. It was just terrible basketball to watch. Careless with the ball, horrible shot selection, and a nonchalant attitude that almost felt like they were entitled to win the whole thing due to their record-breaking season.

The whole KD thing and Green's increasingly spastic behavior have only been the cherries on top for my dislike of the Warriors.

Remember when old Snakehead was saying the Warriors bench would suck and they would suck inside?

Zaza looks terrible.  Varejao hasn't even played yet.

Roy and mods. I'm just one poster but this doesn't make any sense to me. We have had greatest NBA long season threads each year for several years (even those Peter out on slow
Nights of the season). Why split the traffic among an official Celtics thread, an official cavs thread, an official warriors threads. This really doesn't make any sense and makes it harder to discuss the NBA in my opinion.

Yeah, I actually thought that was one of the best signings of the summer based on how he played in Dallas last year, but he's been atrocious so far in the preseason and tonight. Looks like he really fell off a cliff. Just doesn't have the physicality or mobility to do his thing anymore.

It is funny...Last season I rooted for the Warriors and enjoyed watching them.

Now I dislike them immensely and and really enjoying how this game has so far transpired, and hope they lose a lot of games this year.

We have a full forum to discuss the NBA. There's plenty of content to generate more than one thread.

Thought it was questionable, but I saw others were not.  Long season, but yeah he looks awful.  The real thing is: who else is behind him even?  Again, guys like Varejao, McAdoo, McGee.... I am not buying it.  It's an issue.  Yeah they have tons of other talent, but this is a team that got beat up inside by Cleveland and they got worse.  In the Playoffs the games go inside.  Shooting and scoring is great but at some point it becomes a bit redundant.  Having such huge flaws... I just think this could go sideways.  I still think they win a lot of regular season games but this team is vulnerable.
