The Golden State Warriors are working to maintain the NBA’s greatest dynasty.

Even though they aren’t the most talented club on paper heading into the 2023-24 season, their reputation for winning titles precedes them.

When Steve Kerr is in charge of a team that includes Stephen Curry, Draymond Green, and Klay Thompson, the results are nearly certain to be excellent to outstanding.

The 2021-22 champions and conference semifinalists, the Dubs, could be in for a rough ride this year. We’ll take a peek into the future and make some wild guesses about what could occur.

Chris Paul Will Not Finish the Season with the Warriors

There is a parallel world in which Chris Paul is a great match for the Golden State Warriors, but that universe is probably not our own.

His deliberate approach might perhaps confuse the Warriors’ fluid system in this situation. While he will help reduce Golden State’s turnovers, the team’s renowned freedom may suffer as a result.

The Warriors may start the 38-year-old out of respect, but it will quickly become clear that he is not a part of their strongest lineups. Between him and Curry, there isn’t enough defense for this to function well.

Paul and his massive contract would be required to make the money work in a blockbuster deal if Golden State ever realized it lacked the star power necessary to challenge for a championship.

The D-Backs Currently Feature Three All-Stars

It’s not simple to send several players to the All-Star Game, but Golden State makes it seem like a cinch on a regular basis.

The Warriors have had at least two players named to the All-Star team six times since 2014-15. In addition, four times over that span they have sent three or more players to the tournament.

It’s the sixth year for the show. If Green is healthy and the Warriors continue to win, he should join Curry as a sure bet. His value as a distributor and utility defender makes him impossible to pass up.

The most likely contender to take the third slot would be Andrew Wiggins, who is a dominating defender and could score 20 points per game while being efficient. Keep Thompson in mind for the time being. He seems to be completely healthy now, and he might be competing for a contract. If he stays healthy, he still has a shot at an All-Star campaign.

This Year’s Most Valuable Player Award Contenders Include Stephen Curry

The Warriors have built their roster around Curry, but he is still essential to their success.

And if they accomplish a lot this year, like win about 55 games and place in the top three in the West, he might add to his MVP total.

Even though he missed 26 games and Golden State had to struggle to escape the play-in round, he finished eighth in MVP voting. The significance of such fact cannot be overstated.

Despite being 35 years old, his statistics show no symptoms of decline. He scored 29.4 points per game last season, third highest in his career, and came within a field goal of averaging 50/40/90 for only the second time in his career
