I'm pretty sure there is a stats/sabermetrics site, (I'll google it in a minute) that keeps track of team efficency, player effieciency, and compares them to past and present teams. This Golden State Warriors squad ranked something like the 3rd greatest team of ALL TIME. They break down the numbers over something like 40 years, common opponents, strength of schedule, the list goes on and on.

The Warriors were the Top offense and Top defense (efficiency, which is all that matters). Bogut was maybe the actual DPOY when the numbers were crunched. Draymond SHOULD have won. Their outside game is off the charts but what I think surprised people is them being top 5 in INSIDE scoring. Klay, Steph, Barnes, Andre, and many other inside threats that also serve as outside threats.

All this hating by (already forgot his name) is extremely entertaining nonetheless. (also his opinion, with arbitrary numbers thrown in for good measure).

The real numbers don't lie, the facts do not lie, this Warriors team if they win it all is one of the greatest in NBA History. The experts (almost) unanimously agree. Fans agree. Players agree. Obviously when that happens you are going to get a few of those people that just HAVE to prove that isn't the case.

In the end it won't matter. The Championship is for THIS YEAR. So This year is all that matters. I highly doubt the Warriors or Steve Kerr is worried they are "overrated" as they raise the trophy. All because one guy is bitter his (Clippers?) didn't make it. A Clippers team which is FARRRR more overrated than this Warriors squad. They were pretenders, the Warriors (even Rockets, Grizz) are/were contenders.
