2021-2022 AROUND the NBA: GSW Champs [ARCHIVED]

#2 offensive rating, which is really good. #27 defensive rating, which is really bad. Both of those cancel out and leave them with 15th overall rating. Trae Young plays a big role in both of those, of course, but they also have other bad defenders like Huerter, Bogdan, and Gallinari playing major minutes. Probably also a little too much believing of their own hype after making the conference finals last year.

There is talk that Capela is having an off year defensively too.  If he is at all getable I would jump on that.  Anyone not named Luka, DFS, Brunson, Din plus our first.  I feel like a closing lineup of Capela/DFS/Luka/Din/Brunson is contender worthy.
