The Golden State Warriors were hopeful of signing LeBron James this summer. The team even looked at trading for Anthony Davis, as a means to entice James to sign in the Bay Area. However, these are short-term moves for Golden State. The Warriors real focus is reportedly on building a roster for after Stephen Curry retires.

"What (team governor Joe) Lacob wants to do, and this might get Warriors fans mad. He wants to build the next team after Steph Curry," veteran reporter Tim Kawakami said on a recent episode of the TK Show. "I don't know how possible that is, but Lacob has a very keen interest in... this organization's going to show what it can do with Steph Curry and then after Steph Curry."

This isn't to suggest that the Warriors are punting on the remainder of Curry's career. Instead, Golden State seems to be looking at short-term moves to build around their aging superstar, while keeping flexibility open for the post-Curry years.
