Are GSW really contenders? (alien.top)

I know most of the players aren't playing anywhere near their potential with Curry carrying them like his life depended on it. But even if they all did better, is it still a championship team?

I'd guess not. With GS's core not getting any younger, it could be argued that their window was closed by the Draymond/Poole incident last season. Klay seems off this year. They have CP3. So when the playoffs come and the Warriors find themselves needing a second unit leader, CP3's going to be unavailable to them. He'll pull a hammy or something.

If GS's players play to their reputations then the Warriors aren't contenders. But the Warriors have surprised us all before. Steph is wicked talented. Klay could just be having a rough start. Wiggins is a difficult player to get a good read on. Their roster ain't bad.
