How GOOD Was Prime Golden State Warriors Actually? 

I remember prime GSW literally beat teams in 3 quarters, sat their starters in the 4th. This was without KD too

Nice vid. Additional context: The 2015 Warriors 1st championship came out of no where. No one except Ethan Strauss predicted them to be serious contenders that year. It wasn't until the 2016 21-0 start, that the league and analysts started giving the Warriors juggernaut status.

As a warriors fan in our prime no one can stop us

Hoop reports side business

Prime GSW blew out almost every team in their way.🔥

That Iggy pick up wasn't necessarily "under valued" or " under looked" . This provided a narrative that Golden State could finally get top tier free agents to sign with the team at that time. It was pretty big on ESPN and on all the talking heads on the radio waves.

I'm wondering if KD were to go back to Golden state today if they would still be the most dominant team in the league, even at their advanced age

The reason why they dominated so much at that time is cuz their playstyle was something we never seen. After awhile teams caught on and even copied that blueprint. When you look at it, the best teams in the nba now is similar to the 2017 warriors team. Two man game with a superstar guard who can score and facilitate + a big man or a slasher/wing, a point forward and a sharpshooter. Oh yeah and everybody including the center can make a 3 😂. The nuggets, Celtics, bucks, all these teams is pretty much a replica of that warriors team. It’s one of the reasons why the warriors are struggling now. Good vid tho.

I wish GS win another championship, making Curry pass Lebron. Because Lebron isn’t just the greatest because of Curry, and Curry it’s not the greatest because of Lebron…

Nice video brother

This voice is so familiar, i feel like I've heard it before in another channel

Prime Bulls vs Prime GS-(Best of Seven) 90's Rules-Bulls the edge by a little. However, GSW could adapt after a 2 games and start unleashing. No defense will stop great offense. Today Rules-GSW all the way. The fire power would be too much. The bench was very stable. They cut a 22 point deficit under 3 minutes and 2 mins later youre being blown out.

Dubs needed KD but KD needed the warriors more. It’s the style of play that warriors ran which unlocked KDs potential. I don’t think it would have worked if he teamed up with LBJ

Where do you get your video clips from?

really - is this from hoops report!

Steph went on fire in the first game and stayed on fire for the whole season. I never anything like that. Not even seen Jordan shot like that. It’s the only unanimous mvp year for anyone in the nba. And then KD joined them and they would play better when KD sat.

If certain egos werent in the way and the NBA didnt have pay restrictions this team would have been the greatest team ever!

Prime warriors, either 1 or 2 all time. Bulls or Dubs, what a matchup it would be.

If kevin Durant and klay boogie didn't have an injurie like they had that 3 peat but we dont know it

The GSW was left unchecked. East is focused on LeBron while GSW is punishing the West with 3s. It takes time until all teams are adjusted to their play. Now everyone is shooting 3s. Every team wants to beat GSW that every defense is designed to stop their threes and ball movement. Kerr was a genius because he saw that screens can be a good key role for their shooters. The bench is good from Livingston down to McGee. It was a complete team with roleplayers.

Hoop reports is that u?

Hearing the grizzlies be considered a powerhouse is just insane to me

3:26 cross was nasty don’t remember this

KD with Splash Bro abd Dray was the best. So OP.

Dammit Danny green!!?

In all actuality, the 2018-2019 squad with Boogie was the best one. They just weren't fully healthy long enough to see it playout. Imagine had they resigned all the key players the next season (i.e., KD, Boogie, and Bogut) and then replaced Quinn Cook, Jacob Evans, and Jordan Bell with slightly better role players at similar salaries. With Klay beginning the next sesson injured and KD leaving for Brooklyn, GS has been in panick mode ever since; just grabbing at straws. Proof of that is not moving on from Wiggins and only being able to acquire CP3 in a Jordan Poole trade that included two young draftees and a pick. Let's not forget how they misused Wiseman. Ok. I went off on a little tangent. My bad, but yeah adding Boogie with everyone healthy and fully engaged with no side agendas would've been the most dominant team ever.

Harrison BARNES choked in 2016 but he deserves more mention

Ok in the beginning of the video what “one of the best offensive’s ever” Is he talking about?? In what finals game?

2016 GSW probably the best NBA team was created of all time. I think this team was better than 90s Bulls

Its crazy how many times theyre opponents got season ending injures. Conley, Irving, Love in '15. Kawhi ini 17'. CP in '18. Ja in '22. Could've been more fun to watch them battle. Still the best team ever assembled

@hoopsreport this sounds like you

Casually enjoying the video and then hear him say “the warriors changed the nba more than any team has in any sport ever” you guys need to caveat these things by adding in the usa* cos I don’t know if you’ve ever heard of Johan Cruyf or Pep Guardiola

Cousins was clearly never meant to win a championship with how that 2019 season concluded with almost everyone getting injured

"We believe" warriors is the best gsw.

I am getting suspicious, the Dubs are winning through the game, then all of a sudden, they failing to make the shots, then loss the game in the last five minutes. Are they trying to get more balls in the draft of 2024 or they are getting too old for the game last minutes of play?

Thia came out nowhere was just set with Curry there ..I mean whenever is it will be dominating... And will lead to championship

Anybody who claims that Micheal Jordan faced a team as good as this in the NBA finals, is literally out of their mind and has no business in a conversation regarding basketball.

LeBalco James should have consumed more erythropoietin (EPO) to beat the Golden State Warriors. 😢

We all know how good it was, Trust me you dont need to tell us (we sweep LJ)

I'll take Shaq and Kobe Lakers all day!

4 hall of famers in there prime 3 can score 40-50 any night wasnt fun it not impressive when u expect it will f the warriors didn’t already go finals two years in row it be impressive but it isn’t

first

The only flaw of this dynasty is Steve Kerr, if replaced Kerr, I’m sure that they’re having a longer domination and more championship

Also the first team to blow a 3-1 lead in the finals

Lol only lebron cud beat that team lol and to this day only lebron hasssss beaten them 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

The greatest comeback of the century is when LeBron came back to beat these losers.
