Welcome back to the top of the mountain, Dub Nation. The Golden State Warriors rattled off their fourth championship run in eight years, prolonging a dynasty that was declared dead in 2020.

The Golden State Warriors have resurrected the dynasty and have a few questions to answer as they head to the offseason as reigning champs.

The target is back on their backs. Next season, Golden State will be the defending champs — not a team that lost in the Play-In Tournament.

Expectations will be different and the way they are treated by the rest of the league will follow suit. We all know it’s difficult to repeat as champs but the Dubs do not plan on backing down from the challenge.

In order to properly tackle this new set of obstacles, a few questions will need to be answered in the summer of 2022. Some short-term and others that could impact the franchise for years to come.
