One of the things that stood out this season for the Golden State Warriors was the constant search for something that just *worked*.

Any team looking to contend for a title — or at the very least, looking to become a serious playoff team — has to bring something to the table. That takes the form of an identity rooted upon stability and consistency. In all of the years the Warriors have won their four championships, they knew who they were: a team that moves the ball, moves its players, and takes an egalitarian approach in order to boost the dominance of its best players.
