Warriors' Curry: Elite Player?



LeBron James, Kevin Durant, Kobe Bryant, Dwyane Wade, Russell Westbrook, Dwight Howard, Deron Williams, Dirk Nowitzki, Andre Iquadala, and Stephen Curry?

Yes that may surprise you. Curry will be apart of the elite, if he proves that there's actually bone in his ankle. If Curry can stay healthy, all while averaging PG-like numbers, that there's no doubt in my mind that he will end up being an all-star, maybe even considered for the dream team. I know that I've talked a lot about the negative side about Curry, but after all, he is a Warrior.
Curry's positives are motivation. He is bound to lead the desperate Warriors, along with Thompson, the playoffs. He will be able to matchup with Nash, Westbrook, Williams, and some of the other elite PG's. Rose doesn't count this season.

Hopefully, Steph will be involved with all the ballers apart of team USA who are looking to have fun, while still working hard. Just a couple years ago, the NBA saw Curry's potential, and he played with these guys. This shows that has the potential to be at the top and hanging with the ballers. The thing is injury cut him from the list and stole his spot on Team USA. Can he get back up there? Comment Below..

Can Klay Thompson Match NBA's Elite?



The NBA has many elite players that can hit clutch shots, take you off the dribble, and can flat out shoot. I know the Warriors' Klay Thompson is going to prove to be able to do that, but first he needs to prove that he can guard these guys.

Does Thompson have what it takes?

The Warriors vs Lakers, and Warriors vs Heat games are going to be big for the Warriors. Thompson will have trouble guarding Kobe Bryant, or Dwyane Wade, but it'll be a learning experience for him. He'll likely end up in the post, angering the superstars.

If Klay Thompson is able to go head-to-head with NBA's better players, it'll be a momentous season for the Warriors. They finally have a guy who won't let you down, will produce consistence numbers, is of average height, and isn't injury prone. He is a hard worker and a brilliant player, who's already garnered praise from NBA's finest players. He should be able to matchup with elite players. His range is limitless, and he's working on taking the ball to the basket. Those are both areas that guards SHOULD excel in. Thompson has proved that he's a force to be reckoned with.

The Warriors really stole Thompson in the draft, and now, with a reloaded roster, they're hungry:
After the years of horrible management, Curry, Thompson, Lee, and Bogut are hungry for more than 82 games this season. They're bound to be hyped up and make it to the playoffs. If they want to do this, Thompson is going to have to put up some pretty big numbers on the season. If LeBron scores 38, he should score 31. 

A big moment will be the first Warriors, Lakers game. That game means a lot for the Warriors, seeing if they can make it to the post season, lead by the young stud. Can they do it? Comment below.
