1. The Warriors will be fine, James Harden
In a recent interview with ESPN, James Harden was asked about how he felt about the new superteam in the Bay Area. His response – “There’s only one ball”. Well Mr. Harden, I don’t know where you’ve been the past couple seasons, but sharing the rock has never been a problem for the Warriors.
The Warriors have based their whole offensive system on ball movement and constant motion, unlike Kevin Durant’s old team in Oklahoma City. He’s no longer playing with a point guard who indents the ball by dribbling into the ground too much. Long gone are the days where Durant will be off to the side with his hands over his head calling for the ball, only to be ignored while his point guard throws up a wild shot to beat the shot clock.

Ah yes, Durant will fit in perfectly with the Warriors.
The core four of Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, Kevin Durant, and Draymond Green can all play off the ball extremely well. Durant will also be able to confidently pass the ball early in possessions knowing the ball will somehow find his way back to him. While his shot attempts and scoring numbers may take a dip, I’m sure he’ll gladly trade that in for the pulling of the championship monkey off of his back.
