They would not have won 7 or 8 in a row. Playing 100 games a year is incredibly taxing; An entire team doing it that many years in a row is just too much. Look at what happened to the Warriors--they finally wore down and had bad injury luck and it's derailed them. [Reply]

That's not what I'm saying; I'm saying that they would have been a dynasty w/ or w/o Durant and that much cap space, because they would have been able to add yet another elite player or two very good players. [Reply]

I said could’ve.
Saying him playing those 2 years means they would’ve won less than 6 is stupid. [Reply]

I just don’t think Steph could physically carry them as the guy and maintain it to have the same level of dynasty you would/could have with KD. [Reply]
