There is no world where the Warriors are a move or two away from being OKC or the Pacers. We are now where they hope to be in a decade, in the twilight of a dynasty. I don’t really get the angst around how we compare to teams that spent years to finally put a competitive squads together. Even if we blew it up, which is the only way we get to that point again, it’s a several year process. Otherwise you nibble around the edges hoping to stay in the mix and push the inevitable rebuild a little further down the road.
I agree the rebuild will take time unless the Warriors have become an organization that stars look at in a new light since Lacob and Co. bought the team. Maybe the way they have treated their own players during the dynasty will have legs in the future.
I’m also curious about our ability to lure blue chip FAs after the Steph years. Money talks and unfortunately the Bay Area is expensive and not Southern California. It’ll be interesting and not something I’m really looking forward to seeing.
Agreed, but the hope is instead of a cap sheet that includes Fortson, Fisher, Maggette, combined making more than a max contract (dont recall if these 3 were at the same time but can replace with Caffey, Blaylock, Dampier, etc) cause the max guys wont even look at us, maybe we can snag a max guy.
Pretty sure its gonna start with drafting well though.
