I think if they sweep Toronto or win in 5 games maximum, they'll probably be regarded as one of the all time great teams, along with the other greats in other sports. Should Toronto force a 6th game, then they will be regarded as a "very good" team for a long time. I see them winning in no more than 5 games.
That's the argument in labeling Golden State among the dynasties.
The league is watered down today with fewer Superstars.
Great teams from the past had to deal with several other great teams, just as you pointed out by stating isn't the case now.
Of course they are an all-time great team, they're having an amazing run
It is what it is
Nothing near the C's run through the 60's
, but still an amazing run
PS: The Bulls in the 90's is also better thus far

Agree
Durant and Curry would get their 25-30 per game (so would Pippen) but Jordan would average 50+ in a series against this Golden State team.
Defense was the focal point back then.
All the guys you mentioned plus more.
Imagine LeBron or others today driving to the hole against Charles Oakley & Anthony Mason.
They would be get hammered.
Lol, I've seen Lebron and others hammered by many guys in the league.
One thing about this Toronto team and K. Leonard. They are worthy opponents at least the Best in the East. Steve Kerr, may have to do one of his better coaching jobs as I think reading the press and seeing there are almost 3-1 favorites in the betting markets can make one think "just show up". That's why I say win it in 5 games.
