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?

Not with current starters. The forwards are all out-muscled. They keep trying to go small ball, but everyone knows their tactics now as they've been playing nearly all the same guys for 3 years now. They need to either put Saric or CP3 in and just focus on P&R with those two as second option and not focus on slashing so much. It mostly results in fouls. You could argue for Podziemski and TJD, but those aren't proven, meanwhile Saric and CP3 tactic worked fine at PHX. They would be def contenders for the Conference Final then.
