2022 lineup:
Curry, Klay, Wiggins, Draymond, Looney - Poole, GP2, Otto Porter, BJelica, Toscano (rookies Moody, Kuminga and Wiseman don't really count, IMO)

2025 lineup:
Podz, Curry, Jimmy, Kumgina, Draymond - Moody, Heild, GP2, Looney, Post, Gui Santos

I think it's this year's team. Jimmy is the best 2nd star since Durant. Moody and Kuminga are massively improved. Post, IMO, is the first legit 7' stretch big and rim protector since....maybe ever???? For the first time since 2016, the Warriors can actually go big and still score.

Side note: Have you guy noticed that Warriors no longer are a turnover prone team.....all because of one player, Butler.

Vote away.

Hard to say. Wiggins was REALLY good then, and Klay was still a threat. Poole basically won us a series

I think our current roster is more well balanced though. We haven't had Jimmy's playmaking since prime Iggy

22 is deeper with more shooting.

I need to see how we play a real playoff team to determine. We’re more top heavy and I feel like I trusted more guys in 22. But Jimmy is the 2nd best player out of these teams. We’re relying on a lot of guys still on their first contract this year. Moody, podz, jk, post, gui are all still on their first contracts while 22 we relied on mostly vets outside of Poole.

22. If 25 wins a championship, then I would discuss comparing them.

to be fair, I think the field in '22 was much weaker. the toughest team was a weaker version of todays Celtics, and nobody came close to current iteration OKC and Cavs

That Celtics team had one of the best defensive teams ever during regular season and were seen as a monster team until they lost. I wouldn't take a single new opponent outside of the better (healthy*) Celtics from this year over them.

Overall, the quality is definitely higher though. I agree with you, but that team was an elite team and likely had a better coach than what they have now.
