The Golden State Warriors' early-season dominance continued on Tuesday. They defeated Kevin Durant and the Brooklyn Nets in an impressive 117-99 win. Stephen Curry led all scorers with 37 points, but a group effort pulled off this satisfying victory. 13 players played, and nobody played for over 30 minutes. That was possible because of the depth and valuable production they are receiving from role players.
Things are going well, and the Dubs are still without two key players in the lineup. But that could be a problem for the red-hot team.
“You got Klay Thompson and James Wiseman back at home playing 5-on-5 getting ready. So that's a great problem to have,” Curry told ClutchPoints.

Most teams struggle to find the right players to play because they don't have enough talent on the roster to be successful. The Dubs are in a situation where Steve Kerr feels comfortable playing everyone on the team, but that's not necessarily how you win games.

“That is the challenge of what we have in terms of balancing how many guys you can throw out there every single night and creating a solid rotation that's going to help us win a championship, so that's the secret sauce right now,” Curry revealed.
It's an unusual dilemma for a championship-caliber team, but as Curry said, it's a great problem to have.
There isn't an exact date for Thompson and Wiseman to return, but things are trending toward them being with the team soon. That's when the real fun begins for Warriors Nation.
