For the last few years, the Golden State Warriors have impressively collected talent from the NBA draft and the free agency pool, and now they're in possession of what many consider to be the best roster in the NBA, but are they the best team? When looking at the standings, they're clearly atop every other team, but will that last? Rookie head coach Steve Kerr is highly rated, but many thought his coaching flaws would show, holding the GSW back when it truly mattered, and it still could. But Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson and Harrison Barnes are working hard to prove everyone wrong, and with the NBA in transition, their settled roster might just be enough to win it all.

Curry added 19 points, Thompson added 23, as the Warriors beat the New Orleans Pelicans 112-85, showing just how easy they can dismantle an opponent. The biggest concern for their opposing teams is the plenty of threats the Warriors posses. They do not rely on one player each night, and they well and truly offer a roster than can show up and take it turns to deliver a game-winning performance each and every night.
Kerr explained, "That's the best game we've played in a long time. Part of it was that we knew we were challenged by this team. It was good for our team to come in and feel threatened, and as a result kind of get our edge back." Thompson added "We've got such versatile defenders and such big wings -- we might have the longest team in the NBA,"
The Warriors have won 11 straight, and there appears to be no stopping Kerr's men, but when it truly matters, will they continue this form and win an NBA championship?
