Golden State Warriors talisman Stephen Curry believes it will be hard for any team to replicate their dynasty. After Klay Thompson moved to the Dallas Mavericks, it brought an end to the legacy of Curry, Draymond Green and Thompson himself.
Thompson made a potent trio with Stephen Curry and Draymond Green, registering 518 wins in the regular season and playoffs.
The Dubs won four NBA championships from 2015 to 2022 and reached five consecutive Finals from 2015 to 2019.
“I mean obviously defining a dynasty can take a lot of different looks,” Curry said in an interview with ESPN’s Malika Andrews. “People thought this was over in 2019 … but 2022 was an amazing championship because we defied the odds … That’s 11 years of almost 12 years of championship relevancy built around a certain core.
“I don’t think [it will be replicated] just because it’s very hard to keep things together in this league. A lot more player movement. Me, Klay and Draymond, we complemented each other so well for so long. We all brought something different to the table, so we’ll see. Records are meant to be broken. Dynasties come all different shapes inside of us, so we’ll see.”
Curry said they would want Thompson to be happy at Dallas Mavericks after his three-year, $50 million deal.
“It’s something that I never imagined would be a reality, but we want him to be happy,” Curry said.
On the other hand, head coach Steve Kerr reckons it is going to be bizarre for the Warriors without the services of Klay Thompson.
“This has become a family over the years and people have watched us grow and stay together and succeed and fail,” Kerr said. “So Klay leaves, it’s like, yeah, it’s bizarre for us, it’s bizarre for everybody. [But] everybody is given a ton of freedom here and they have to do what’s in their heart. The best thing for Klay, he needed a change.”
