Who would win a best of 7 with all players in their average prime condition and with 2003 rules/refs?

Prime 2003 Spurs
Tony Parker / Steve Kerr
Steve Smith / Manu Ginobili
Bruce Bowen / Stephen Jackson
Tim Duncan / Danny Ferry
David Robinson / Kevin Willis

Prime 2019 Warriors
Steph Curry / Shaun Livingston
Klay Thompson / Damion Lee
Kevin Durant / Andre Iguodala
Draymond Green / Kevon Looney
Andrew Bogut / DeMarcus Cousins

Note: 2003 Spurs get a training camp with 2019 coaches to learn how modern offense operates

If it's all prime and assuming the Spurs adjust perfectly then they win, no question.

Duncan and Robinson are just too OP here, and the Spurs will actually have really good spacing around them with Smith, Bowen, Kerr and Manu who all shot close to or 40% or better from 3 in their best years.

Draymond and Bogut are GREAT but they're just going to get eaten alive in the paint completely. The Spurs' Twin Towers will combine for 55/30 every night.

Has to be remembered that of the 4 stars of the Spurs, only one could shoot worth a damn from range. It’s not just about “learning modern offense”, it’s about the talents we focus on being different now.

Warriors.
