The Warriors offense was playing at a remarkable pace last year. They were so good that people outside of Dub Nation often confused them for an offense first type team, which was not the case.

Ron Adams used his defensive mastermind to help take the Warriors from a good defensive team to an elite one. Players like David Lee and Leandro Barbosa who were always known to be awful defenders looked mediocre, at the least.
