You couldn't draw up a realistic dream setting for a franchise better than the Golden State Warriors' current state. The defending NBA champions have possibly the widest title-contention window out of any team heading into the 2015-16 season.
Golden State cruised to the title with relative ease last year, leaning on the enchanting league MVP Stephen Curry. Its core players are all in their mid-20s, making a potential dynasty run a possibility.
The Warriors caught some lucky breaks last season, especially on the injury front. Curry, Klay Thompson, Draymond Green and Harrison Barnes missed a combined 10 games, allowing the Dubs to blitz their way to a 67-15 record.
