We ran into the top two teams in the west this playoffs and neither is getting any younger. In fact, given Klay, Draymond and Curry's injury history the last couple of years, its a minor miracle they have stayed healthy throughout these playoffs. If any one of them is out for our series, we are probably playing in the finals. We definitely need more depth, and luck will play an important role, but I don't see the road as insurmountable next year.
All true. But on the other hand, Mavs were basically healthy (I don't think THJ would make the team better in the role he would play). One injury to DFS or Bullock and it would be totally possible Mavs wouldn't be over first round.
