As Golden State Warriors general manager Mike Dunleavy Jr. and coach Steve Kerr spoke to the media on Monday for the first time this season, their message was clear: The Warriors head into the 2023-24 season confident and connected.
They feel that everything that plagued them last season -- fractured relationships, wild road-home splits and a second-round playoff elimination -- is behind them. With their championship core of Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson and Draymond Green still intact, the Warriors aren't entering a completely new era. But with Bob Myers, the architect of their dynasty, stepping down as general manager and former rival Chris Paul arriving as the team's biggest roster addition, Golden State still has quite a few questions to answer.
