1. Golden State Warriors

This one shouldn’t shock anybody. The Golden State Warriors are at the top of the NBA food chain and until someone proves them otherwise, the throne belongs to the Dubs.

Golden State might have had a few rough patches this season, but they have returned to their complete annihilation of the rest of the NBA. With the successful debut of DeMarcus Cousins and the fact that both Klay Thompson and Draymond Green are finally playing up to their usual level, it is tough to see any team topping the Dubs this year.

Not to mention, Stephen Curry and Kevin Durant seem to be battling each other for who can post the most spectacular stat lines. Curry is averaging 28.6 points, 5.2 assists and 5.1 rebounds a game while Durant is putting up 27.6 points, 5.9 assists and 7 rebounds.

The Dubs lead the league in points, blocks, assists and field goal percentage. With the best record in the NBA, the 2019 championship is theirs for the taking.
