Yup...you never know what kind of trades or injuries might happen over the next few years.
Look what happened with Miami...
The Bogut factor is going to be huge going forward. He's clearly their second most valuable defensive player in the squad and his impact without putting up huge numbers is unsurpassed. I'm surprised no one has brought him up yet.
If you look at the landscape now, yeah, they're going to run the West for a few years, if health permits. I think they're capable of winning 2 in a 5 year span, unless a major shake up happens with FA signing.

I remember when they offered us Bogut, Thompson and Barnsie for Gasol. in' Kupchak turned it down.
We'd be sittin' pretty now, by God.
Warriors dodged a couple of bullets. I remember the Klay Thompson for Kevin Love trade rumors last year.
+ they traded Curry to the Suns. Christ, I'd a never heard the end of it. I would either have had, you know like go crazy with Girl's gun, or, refuse to put on my seat belt.
I'd be shocked if he stays in New Orleans. I just imagine him walking to a team like the Lakers, Celtics, or the usual.
I dont get that sense at all.
5+years. lol
Let the West res-stack itself and we'll come back to this thread.
They did their thing this year but I dont expect any sort of repeat next year or the next.
I agree, that or one le and then they never go back to the Finals (OKC but they lost the finals). Some other teams will come up or one guy will leave etc., then the team seems to slowly go down hill. I like the Warriors team but 5 years of dominance is pretty much hard to do unless you are out East (Heat).
Repeat is their ceiling tbh, or maybe 2 les in 3 seasons even Spurs never repeated with a Hof big and SG and a top 3 coach all time.

They might not even win the finals. I wouldn't crown them yet.
Although I said you can't assume these things in the NBA, the OP is probably correct if they stay healthy and keep their guys, although I'd say 3 years or so, maybe not 5..
Curry is the 2nd best PG of all-time, he's in his prime, his ankles seem fine, he's not going to stop being dominant, all of a sudden..
I think the Spurs can challenge them if they get Aldridge and if Parker suffers a season-ending injury, and OKC could if they stay healthy, but there's no reason to assume they will, at this point, since they have suffered from major injuries every year since 2012..
Some crazy ass predictions by a lot of people on this forum by saying stuff like "The warriors are going to win 5 in a row."
Amazing how much flip flopping this troll does on who he roots for.
