NBA Power Rankings: Is it time to start talking about San Antonio Spurs?

41. The Golden State Warriors are only getting better. They even pulled off the amazing feat of starting JaVale McGee at center and making him look like a competent NBA player — that alone is as impressive as 73-9 in my eyes. Kevin Durant continues to be the most lethal and efficient scorer the NBA has ever seen in his new location. The rest of the Big Four (Steph Curry, Klay Thompson, and Draymond Green) have adjusted to Durant joining up and have found ways to keep being the players they were on their historical 73-win team from a season ago. The biggest storyline about the Warriors this year has to be the ongoing talk of just how they are going to be able to keep this team together in the future. With both Curry and Durant likely to be free agents this summer the team will need to do some elite salary cap gymnastics in order to keep the core four together and surround them with enough depth and talent to keep the well-oiled machine running at its best quality. But since they’re light years ahead this should be no problem for them.. 24-4. . Golden State Warriors. 1. team
