This offseason, a lot of prominent teams around the league have brought in new players, with some rosters undergoing major transformations. Yet, the Warriors, who are also considered strong contenders, have not made any notable moves. The uncertainty surrounding Kuminga’s contract has evidently affected their plans to strengthen the team. Consequently, a number of fans are worried about how competitive the Warriors will be next season, particularly given the increasingly fierce competition in the West.
Recently, Curry discussed the Warriors’ plans for next season. He believes there’s no need to make major changes to the core roster, only minor tweaks to the supporting cast. Lately, Curry has expressed confidence that the Warriors can still compete for a title next season, and he shared his reasoning. After Butler joined the team last season, the Warriors posted one of the top three records in the league. This shows that, when fully healthy, the Warriors are capable of going toe-to-toe with any opponent.
Curry’s comments are indeed hard to argue with. When both he and Butler were healthy, the Warriors performed exceptionally well in the latter part of last season. In the playoffs, it was injuries to both players that led to the team’s early exit. It’s worth noting that they upset the highly athletic Rockets in the first round. For the Warriors, staying healthy is absolutely crucial—especially Curry’s health, which will largely determine how far the team can go next season. Many fans continue to trust Curry to live up to his word, believing that his leadership can guide the Warriors to achieve something remarkable next season.
Even though Curry believes the Warriors don’t need a major overhaul, many fans feel there’s still one area that needs reinforcement: the frontcourt. Since Looney’s departure, the team lacks a reliable rebounder in the paint. Neither Post nor Jackson-Davis has proven to be strong on the boards, and both struggle with tough interior defense. Relying solely on Green to anchor the inside is not enough, especially as he’s not the player he once was. The team really needs to find a blue-collar center to balance the lineup. What do the fans think?
