The Golden State Warriors are looking to remind the rest of the league what they are truly capable of.
They know that the odds might be stacked against them, but this team is eager to prove that they are still one of the best in the West.
Former NBA star Stephen Jackson thinks the Warriors have done enough and have added plenty of power to make true victory possible.
He believes that this team could go all the way to a championship at the end of the 2025-26 season.
“I want to go on record saying this to the world, the Warriors can win the championship. This lineup I’m about to say is the best lineup in the league this year. Steph at the one, Jimmy at the two, Kuminga at the three, Draymond at the four, Horford at the five,” Jackson said.

On paper, this team is one of the scariest in the league.
Steph Curry should never be counted out, no matter how old he is getting and what lineup is surrounding him.
He has repeatedly shown that he is one of the smartest and most reliable players of all time and a guard unlike any other.
Draymond Green and Jimmy Butler are two players who have also shown they have what it takes and can make it through a long and challenging season.
Plus, head coach Steve Kerr is a brilliant mastermind who has gotten this Warriors team through very tough situations.
The offseason additions the team has made will only help the Warriors be in better shape.
However, there are still concerns.
They are now one of the oldest teams in the league, and that could work against them.
Their starting five is filled with players older than 35 years old, and there are serious worries about injuries.
And the Western Conference is as difficult as it’s ever been, so no amount of experience and expertise will make this a cake walk.
There is no doubt that the roster is better than it has been in years, but that doesn’t guarantee anything.
The team has a lot of potential and promise, but that doesn’t mean they’ll find a ton of success.
