The Golden State Warriors have four All-Stars and their coaching staff in New Orleans. Here are five things we all want to see this weekend.

The Golden State Warriors are the center of the basketball universe. Everything revolves around them. They are the standard and the revolutionaries of the modern game of basketball.

They didn’t become the hottest ticket in basketball just because. The Warriors are the best team in the league for the third year in a row. They’re destroying the NBA and making it look easy.

Golden State is doing this because they have the best talent in the entire Association. The Warriors’ fourth best player would be most teams’ top star. That’s how stacked they are.

The Warriors have four All-Stars this season. Stephen Curry, Kevin Durant, Draymond Green, and Klay Thompson will all be suiting up in New Orleans. It’s only the seventh time in NBA history that a team has four All-Stars.

For years now, Golden State has been major players during the entire weekend. They’ve participated in every competition and have had a lot of success recently. Except for the Slam Dunk Contest. That went south really fast a few seasons ago.

Once again, the Warriors are dominating the All-Star Weekend storylines. While they aren’t participating in as many contests this time around, they’re still the center of attention. With Steve Kerr leading his four All-Stars, the buzz is there.

I’m going to put this out there right now: we don’t want to see any more photoshoots. The one the Warriors’ All-Stars already did is more than enough for this season. I think they’ve reached their quota. However, I am not opposed to interesting fashion and Draymond Green set the bar high last year.

Here are five things we want to see this All-Star weekend.
