The Golden State Warriors just followed their third straight 67-plus-win season with a 16-1 playoff record and their second NBA title of this stretch.
If their rotation isn't already set in stone, it's at least written in wet cement.
Twelve members of that championship squad are back, including all five starters and their sixth man. The four newcomers arrived via the mid-level exception, a veteran's minimum deal, the purchase of a second-round pick and the new two-way contract, so there isn't much high-profile competition for the incumbents.
But that just makes our crystal ball clearer.
