The Golden State Warriors have quite possibly assembled the greatest roster to ever set foot on a basketball court. There could already be an argument made that last year’s team that won 73 games was the greatest team ever assembled.

So by adding Kevin Durant to a team that already has Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson and Draymond Green, the Warriors have guaranteed that they will have one of the most anticipated seasons of all time.
