Or maybe you just enjoy seeing historic excellence at an athletic event. It's not clear to me what heinous crime the Warriors or the league have committed by allowing a team to exist that is really good. I'm not a big sports fan, but I thought the point was to be as good as you can at that sport. It would be one thing if there were behind the scenes inequalities unrelated to the athletic event itself, like one team spending way more money that everyone else, but as far as I can tell that's not the case here.

Go watch the Olympic Men's basketball team or the All-Star Game if you want "historic excellence"..
Having a team like this in the regular season is a joke and only serves the most base basketball fans.

I definitely don't understand that. I would consider Olympic Men's basketball more of a joke, since everyone knows that professional basketball in the USA is far and away a bigger deal than in other countries. It's completely stacked from a financial perspective, whereas (AFAIK) that's not the case with the Warriors.
