The Golden State Warriors have looked dominant through the first two games of their first round series against the Denver Nuggets. Perhaps more importantly, the Warriors are close to healthy for the first time all season.

“This is the team we paid for,” Joe Lacob said. “We never really had the team together all year. So I’m excited to see them all play together. We never really got to see it. I think it’s exciting to see it.”

Lacob paused and then spoke of Golden State's breakout guard.

“The biggest thing I’m really happy about is the revelation of Jordan Poole," said Lacob. "He’s just playing incredible. … He’s arguably been our best player for a month and a half. He’s really emerging. He’s a tremendous talent.”

Poole will be eligible for a contract extension this offseason, which could put the Warriors' payroll plus taxes over $400 million.

“I’m not worried about that — certainly not now,” Lacob said. “We only have one thing on our mind now, which is to win, get to the next round and see how far we can go in these playoffs.

“I’m not going to talk about salary because it’s irrelevant right now. We’re in this year. After the year’s over we’re all evaluating where we are, and we’ll try to put the best team on the court we can for next year. And we’ll see what that is.”
