Warriors have put Stephen Curry in an impossible position to succeed

A few months into the season, the Warriors traded for Jimmy Butler in what was somewhat of a surprise move, one that put them on the path they wanted to be on during the second half of the season with Curry at the helm.
Unfortunately, Curry hurt his hamstring in the second round of the playoffs against the Timberwolves, which ultimately ended the Warriors' hopes of winning the 2025 title. However, Golden State's transformation after the Butler trade still had fans on a high entering the offseason.
