The outlook for the new season! What is the key to the Warriors’ three-core core?
1:39pm, 15 August 2025【Basketball】
In the first round of the Western Conference last season, the Warriors completed the Black Seven reversal, and eliminated the Rockets, the second in the West, the second in the West. Unfortunately, in the second round of the series against the Timberwolves, Curry was out of the game due to injury, and Butler also forced his game with injuries, and finally lost to the Timberwolves 1-4, ending a full season's counterattack journey.

If Butler did not play with injury, if Curry could play steadily, would the Warriors defeat the Timberwolves? Personally, the Warriors, who are healthy, still have a chance to turn the tables. After all, in the first game of the series, Curry played for less than one quarter and the Warriors won, and then Curry was injured and the Warriors lost four consecutive games and were eliminated.
This is enough to show that as long as Curry is there, the Warriors are still a playoff-level team.
Previously, Curry was asked about his goal for the 17th season in an interview, and Curry said without hesitation that the goal of the new season is to win the fifth championship trophy in his career. But referring to the signings that have hit walls all over the offseason, do they really have the ability to compete for the championship?

It is undeniable that the Warriors in the new season are still a team with Curry, Butler and Green. With these three people as the core, the Warriors are definitely competitive. However, considering the age of the three and the fierce competition in the West, the Warriors are at best just a playoff team, or one of the championship competitions. There is still a huge gap between the Warriors and the real champions.
If the Warriors want to compete for the championship, it is absolutely not enough to rely on the three veterans alone. They also need to rely on the progress of young players, otherwise it will be really difficult to talk head-on with young championship teams such as the Thunder, Rockets, and Mavericks. When it comes to the young players of the Warriors, Kumingga's physical talent and professional attitude are undoubtedly, but he was hidden for no reason last season, and he was still diligent when he was ordered to play in danger. Judging from the team, he really can't ask for anything from him anymore.
So is there still a future between Kumingga and the Warriors? At present, there is not a completely lack of chance. Kobe also strongly demanded to leave the Lakers, but in the end he chose to stay in the team and play for a full 20 years. Although it is difficult for Kumingga to compare with Kobe, he definitely has core strength, it depends on how the Warriors use it.

But what is embarrassing is that the team's head coach Cole unexpectedly publicly admitted that he would not train young players. Although it is a good thing to show your shortcomings honestly, how should Cole's speech be handled by the young players in the team? In addition to Kumingga, among the young players, the growth of Moses Moody and Pojemsky is also particularly critical.
Overall, the Warriors' biggest problem at the moment is that Cole cannot fully utilize the talents of the young players. The Warriors already have Butler, and this player will definitely be Kumingga's best mentor role. But if Cole continues to scatter Kumingga for no reason like last season, then the biggest problem may be head coach Cole.
For a team that has Curry, we can never ignore it. For the Warriors in the new season, they cannot see a clear enough future at present, but it is definitely worth looking forward to.
