The Golden State Warriors, during Stephen Curry's era, have showcased immense talent alongside him, including Klay Thompson and Draymond Green. Notably, their pre-title season in 2013-14 saw overlooked players like David Lee making significant contributions. Jermaine O'Neal, a former star center known for his time with the Indiana Pacers, was also part of the 2014 Warriors squad, averaging 7.9 points and 5.5 rebounds in 44 games. Despite his brief stint at Golden State, discussions surrounding O'Neal's legacy have gained traction, especially as former player Lou Williams recently placed him among elite company, including Kobe Bryant and LeBron James, suggesting a reevaluation of O'Neal's place in NBA history.
