Zach Lowe, Haralabos Voulgaris and Bill Simmons discuss the Warriors before their 2014-15 championship season

Stumbled across this old Grantland podcast of these three previewing the 2014-15 season and they have a pretty good chat about the Warriors which is interesting to look back on considering what they went on to become. Leading into the season, there was plenty of discussion on them not trading Klay + Lee for Kevin Love and Steve Kerr was their new coach.

Few standout points:

- Bill thought Iguodala was near the end of his career, like Pippen post Chicago. The others agreed Kerr would get him back to his best.

- Bill predicted Shaun Livingston who they just signed would have a huge impact on the Warriors being better

- Despite it being his first head coaching job, all three predicted Kerr would be a big upgrade compared to Mark Jackson (with all due respect)

- All three agree they should've traded for Love with one interesting quote "players like Klay come out of college every year" and "it's Kevin Love, you just go and get him"

- Quote Bill "He's a good player but I won't be telling my grandkids about Klay Thompson"

- Zach Lowe had Curry as his MVP prediction that season if Lebron didn't win it, which Curry did end up winning
