2012 trade, added Andrew Bogut from Milwaukee
2013 trade, added Andre Iguodala from Denver.
2014 free agency, added Shaun Livingston from the Brooklyn Nets.
That is Golden State's top SEVEN players on the entire team, plus Festus Ezeli who had some decent games in the playoffs, who were all added via, wait for it, the DRAFT, FREE AGENCY and TRADES all in the last FOUR SEASONS (with the exception of Stephen Curry who was added six season ago).
Now, isn't it just amazing how Golden State started improving in three years ago, eventually leading to an NBA Championship this season? Wow!
