The back to back champions

The Warriors are winners of the offseason because they remained atop of the league. They are possibly the greatest team of All-Time. They still have the defensive intensity and leadership of Draymond Green, the best 3-point shooter of All-Time with Steph Curry, one of the best scorers in the game in Kevin Durant, and one of the best two-way guards in the game in Klay Thompson.

Signing DeMarcus Cousins has been overreacted by fans. When he was healthy, Cousins was the best center in the game, but he's going to miss a big chunk of the season. He will be coming off a torn achilles, which is one of the worst injuries a basketball player can have.

The Warriors are again the favorite to win the championship and for the first time, they won't be seeing LeBron in the finals. Their finals will be between most likely the Celtics, who will put up a very competitive final and they are the best chance of pushing the Warriors off the championship run.
