so when was the last time GS landed a superstar by either free agency or through trades?
100 percent irrelevant to being an underdog. Warriors have drafted amazingly well, like Spurs and Thunder. Doesn't mean they are underdogs because they don't acquire superstars via trade LMAO. Boston did for KG and Allen and now your idea is because nearly a decade ago the Celtics made a trade, they shouldn't be underdogs RIGHT NOW in the acquisition based on silly arbitrary stuff like that?
im referring to the history of both franchises and your scope is just based on the past two seasons. Its ironic based on the history of both franchises. Agree to disagree if you want to.
As sports fans we live in the now/recent mostly. Nobody who's borderline dynasty like the Warriors is going to be underdogs because of what happened for 20 years prior to the last 3 dude. If that was the case, people wouldn't rag on the Clippers as bad because their history is worse than anybody's. Yet they have become a good squad the last 4 or 5 years and I don't think anyone has pity on them despite not winning a damn thing. My point was just that it's a bad way to look at it based on how sports work.
