Many teams have strengthened their roster during the off-season, primarily the Nets and the Lakers, who have built ‘super teams’. But 6-time champions Golden State Warriors are not behind. They have added experience and young energy to their roster by signing three veterans and two rookies. Stephen Curry and co. will also have Klay Thompson back after missing two seasons due to injuries.

The Warriors have brought back Andre Iguodala during the off-season. The 2015 Finals MVP played six seasons with Stephen Curry at the bay. Iguodala is back with the Warriors after two seasons in Miami and he can’t stop appreciating Curry.

Stephen Curry is a player who rarely responds to any form of criticism. He is not very outspoken and Iguodala has had his back for the past few seasons. Iguodala recently opened up on defending Curry against his critics.

Sometimes you just got to let people know who you are, sometimes you need your ego,” Iguodala told of NBC Sports.

“He doesn’t like coming off as boisterous or bragging about himself, so sometimes you need your hype man. I got to remind him and other people that this is a different type of human being, and you’re going to respect him.”
