What exactly is Golden State's major weakness?

[G.O.A.T Squad Spokesman]

You never played our starting five together.

Portland did

Honestly, I don't think they really have a major weakness. You can say they don't have a go to post-scorer but as others have said it's not like they can't get buckets in the paint. And I guess you can point to inexperience considering I'm pretty sure Barbosa is the only one of their rotation players that's actually gone deep in the playoffs before.

Now that doesn't mean that they're legendary or unbeatable but let's be for real they will and should be the favorites to win the title.

I don't know about weaknesses but I think Grizzlies would be their toughest matchup. Gasol and Conley have to ball out tho

Portland did

What a stupid post.

Probably size imo, imagine if Dwight signed with them instead of Rockets..that team would have rings. Bogut just doesn't seem reliable, first time in a long time he has been playing for most of the season. I don't see any team beating them though.. Curry/Klay will need 4 bad nights for them to lose.

Their biggest weakness is that their center has a fukkin mullet.

Bogut is great. but injury prone. Don't bring Festus into a serious conversation, please.

You stay hyperbolizing sub-average Warriors. Can't all of your great/good players be enough? Do you have to pretend that guys like Festus and Ekpe Udoh are legit? This dude can't rotate, he's a barely passable one on one defender, he bites on fakes, and he barely move the needle on ANY metric. Block %, Defensive plus/minus per 100, replacement value... all garbage.

With Bogut healthy, it's mostly a non issue. With him out... it gets soft in the middle. But you have enough perimeter defense and disruptors to make up for it and make it hard to work the ball in the post consistently.

Their defense is ass. Don't care what stats say
Just attack the rim

The Basketball IQ on this board is extremely low.

 

[Dev2103]

[DoubleClutch]

Their biggest weakness and strength is andre Iguadola

Nah he's trolling. I refuse to believe there's adults walking around with hat level of stupidity. He's trolling.

So Festus Ezeli isn't a good post defender? I guarantee you won't find 1 poster on this board that would agree with that.
