As the final seconds ticked off and a piercing buzzer sounded throughout the Toyota Center. A familiar voice gleefully announced the Rockets had won.

en route to an NBA Championship, the Warriors have begun their title defense by completely rewriting the record books. Stephen Curry has become a one-man glitch in the Matrix, but that's not all the Dubs have to offer. Under Steve Kerr and his coaching staff, including current interim head coach Luke Walton, the Warriors have used their ridiculous assemblage of talent to steamroll the rest of the league. In the process, they've helped to redefine how basketball is played in the NBA. Anatomy of…
