šŸ€ DYNASTY DEBATE: Steph Curry drops a bold take comparing the new-look Warriors to the 2022 championship squad — confidence radiates, leadership shines, and fans are left wondering… is this version even more dangerous than before?..ll

Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry

TheĀ Golden State WarriorsĀ are less than three weeks away from kicking off their 2025-26Ā NBAĀ season with a road game against the divisional rivalĀ Los Angeles Lakers. The Warriors are projected to have one of the oldest starting lineups in NBA history, especially after signing 39-year-old veteran Al HorfordĀ to a multiyear deal.

The Warriors are three years removed from their last championship run in 2022, and the team has won just two playoff series since then. Last year, a Curry injury during their second round series against theĀ Minnesota TimberwolvesĀ ultimately spelled Golden State’s downfall

Still, despite their collective age and lack of recent success, Curry remains confident that the Warriors can compete this year and even gave a reason as to why this team could be more dangerous than their last championship squad.

ā€œWe have a legitimate shot. We can square up against anybody in the West… Jimmy (Butler) adds another dynamic that we didn’t even have back (in 2022),ā€ said Curry on ESPN’s ā€œNBA Today,ā€Ā via NBA Central on X.

The Warriors acquired Butler at last year’s trade deadline in a deal that sent Andrew Wiggins back to theĀ Miami Heat. Immediately after bringing Butler into the fold, the Warriors went on a hot streak that had some viewing them as a legit contender in the Western Conference.

However, Golden State faded down the stretch of last year’s regular season, narrowly avoided blowing a 3-1 lead in the first round against theĀ Houston Rockets, and then were ultimately undone by Curry’s ill-timed injury in the second round.

Still, if this aging team is somehow able to stay relatively healthy, the Warriors figure to have one of the more complete starting lineups in the NBA, and of course, its most lethal shooter in Curry, even as he approaches the age of 38.

The Warriors and Lakers will kick off their respective seasons against one another on Oct. 21 at 10:00 PM ET from Los Angeles.
