Without the two stars Golden State Warriors will probably would perform better as less eyes starring at them. Besides, I expect DeAngelo Rusell to have a much improved season. I think, they got hit more in their bench and their defense. They lost two important role players in Andre Iguodala (was traded to Memphis) and Shaun Livingston (opted to retire) but, atleast they still have the heart of their defense in Draymond Green and Kevon Looney. They're still a contender team with that core intact and still going to be a force. Losing KD (signed with the Nets) and an injury prone Boogie (currently in Lakers uniform). They were good before with just 3, now they have D’Angelo Russell, a former Lakers player. Hopefully Klay gets better and heals very fast. As for this year, I am not expecting not that much for the Warriors, I expect more West Conference teams to capitalize the changes in Warriors roster.
