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

[ItsGoTime]

In my mind the goal is not to make the WCF next year, the goal is to win championships in the future.  Any moves we make should be with that goal in mind.  

I think some of the comments that we are way behind these two teams in the finals are a little overstated.  The same was said about the Suns.  I think this team was a little gassed after that series due to lack of depth issues.  Having a center that can get you 20 minutes in a playoff game would have been a big help, and Timmy could have eaten all of the Green and Frank minutes and given Bullock and Dorian a little more breather.  I don't know if that will be enough to get to the WCF again, but we will be a better team than this season, and the following offseason we will be in a much better asset position to improve the team further.

We did beat the Suns, sure, I still think we are behind them in the sense that had they won, they would have given the GSW a better run for their money. Last year Atl and Pho made it far in the playoffs only to come back to earth this year. I think if we, in general keep the same team, we meet the same fate. It’s not gonna take small upgrades to take this team further, the upgrades need to be big (which more than likely isn’t gonna happen this offseason, but, upgrading our talent snd asset base will only make us better next year…for any scenario). I think there is gonna be pretty big disappointment next year if people actually believe this team is built to repeat this year’s success.
