Y'all are so funny. This is still the same team that has gone to back to back finals
Not entirely. They gave up a chunk of that team to get KD.
We replaced bogut and speights with zaza and McGee David west
We replaced Barbosa with Clark
We added Matt Barnes
Iggy and Livingston still play on the Warriors if I'm
Not mistaken
Harrison Barnes ?

Right. Not the same guys, so not the same familiarity and in most cases, I don't think the replacements are better players.

True but it will do lol
I think you can't just compare the replacement players to the old ones because the schemes have now changed for the Warriors.
Bogut was a great passer and screen setter and really great defender. But he was a horrible free throw shooter and you couldn't count on him to score a bucket if it wasn't a lob. Pachulia is almost an 80% freethrow shooter, with a mid range game and good passer as well. He's not on Bogut's level defensively, but he holds his own.
Speights was instant offense with no D. West is more methodical, less offense, but much more toughness and defense. So there's a balance there.
Barnes is an unknown quantity with this team just yet.
Yes you can. You have to. This isn't comparing players from different era's, this is now. If you replace a player with one who isn't as good, you don't get better at that spot, regardless of schemes.
But without KD, I just don't see the Warriors as being as good as the past 2 years.
