Durant is done for next year as an Achilles is a 12 month injury.

Thompson is out 6-9 months best case scenario and even if it’s on the 6 month and I doubt it will be an ACL tear takes 20 months to become fully at the same strength as it was before the tear. The other ligaments around the ACL can pick up some of the shock absorbing but they need 20 months to be what you were that is why guys coming off their 2nd year in fantasy football are good values.

I understand what you are saying about the Warriors paying the luxury tax but resigning those guys would cost the Warriors 1.6 billion dollars the next four years. Paying that if those guys didn’t get hurt is an obvious decision but these guys with major injuries that is a lot of money to not be the favorite.
Playoff revenue with home games makes up revenue but the Warriors without Klay/Durant next year are not the best team in the West.
They have to resign Looney who is a FA.
Cousins is a FA and he isn’t taking the MLE next year.

The roster didn’t have depth as it was.
They won’t get ring chasers with just Steph and Green. Plus Green next year will be gunning for DPOY or 3rd team all-NBA to try and force a Supermax which he wouldn’t get but would want.

Warriors aren’t the favorite for the West now.
I go
1 Rockets 
2. Clippers assuming they Kawhi or Butler
3. Warriors
4. Lakers assuming they get Anthony Davis
