to be clear and to be sure we're all on the same page, nobody is saying they were better three years ago. we are saying that now, as we watch them currently, they are better without the Durant. it really can't be argued. the results bear it out.

Josef K

Exactly. They were better back then. And they still got shut down

The Warriors vs Cavs NBA Finals over the past four years, games that matter most

Dakota Cougar

smokymountainrain

5/21/19 8:27am

Durant didn't join the team until 2017? They played without him in 2015-2016.

Dakota Cougar

5/21/19 8:33am

7-6 and 8-1. 2-0 and 1-1.
