The Golden State Warriors will be even better next year when they begin their title defense, head coach Steve Kerr said on Wednesday, sending a warning to the rest of the NBA.
The Warriors dynasty, which includes titles in 2015, 2017 and 2018, appeared to be heading to a close when the team fell in the 2019 NBA Finals, posted the league's worst record in 2020 and missed the playoffs last season.
But the franchise kept its core together and got healthy in time for this year's playoffs, which it capped off by defeating the Boston Celtics 4-2 for a fourth title in eight years.
