How good are the Warriors?
John Schumman believes they could be an all-time great team if they finish well.
“Statistically, the Warriors are the best team we’ve seen since the 1995-96 Bulls and the best team in the league by a wide margin,” NBA.com’s John Schuhmann wrote. “At this point, it’s fair to ask if, in predicting the NBA championship, you would pick the Warriors or the field.”
I’m not sure it means much in a loaded Western Conference — where the eight seed could easily take you out.
