The gold standard in the league the last decade had Stephen Curry as the undeniable leader. There are four NBA titles that prove the Golden State Warriors are contenders with the best shooter of all time in the lineup.

But there is also no doubt that the window might start to close soon with Curry being 35 years old. His age has not been a problem because he performed at the highest level every time he was on the court last season. The issue is that the Warriors have multiple core players of that age.
