Of all of the teams in the NBA, the Golden State Warriors have emerged as the defining team of the modern era.
It’s not just their success – although, four championships in seven seasons will earn you quite a reputation. With that said, it’s also how they achieved it. The Warriors have made innovations on their road to the top that revolutionized the way basketball is played.
Among those innovations, giving Draymond Green time at the center position may be the most significant. That decision was instrumental in the development of small ball. With that in mind, it’s easy to forget that the Warriors haven’t always gone small.
In fact, when they won their first championship, Andrew Bogut was a starter. Moreover, nobody should underestimate what Kevon Looney contributed to last season’s title run.
