During this offseason, after blowing a 3-1 lead in the NBA Finals, the Golden State Warriors decided to go big or go home. In short, they went big. Huge.

After signing Kevin Durant, and letting Harrison Barnes walk, the Warriors have constructed one of the best teams on paper. Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, Kevin Durant and Draymond Green. It’s not going to be fair. At all.

Even though the Warriors will probably make their way to a third straight NBA Finals, one that they’ll probably be favored it, I still couldn’t put this team ahead of the Cleveland Cavaliers. Not yet.
