I think Klay and Steph are about equally valuable, which is to say that neither can get to the playoffs without the other even with a perennial DPOY candidate like Green on the court

but let’s start from basic principles : when Stephen Curry was tasked to lead a team as its best player he lead that team directly into the draft lottery that is the truth you have to confront first. he is the most responsible person for a team not being good. that happened just this year you can’t ignore it it’s the elephant in the room

c’mon he’s better than good offense

here is a thought experiment go back to the beginning of the season and start again except trade Steph Curry for Chris Paul that one change and the warriors are the two seed and Phoenix is out of the playoffs or close to the bottom

indigi posted:c’mon he’s better than good offense his team - which he lead as the point guard - had the 20th ortg in the league I thought I was being generous with “good”. it’s unclear how valuable his offense is when you consider the whole package . I understand he’s valuable in fantasy but we are talking about real games

I think Curry and Zach Lavine are basically interchangeable in terms of value . Zach is a little less refined

Booker is a much better second option than Steph’s had though

Chris Paul dragged the thunder to a 44 -28 record last year thunder 22-50 something this year I don’t think it’s Devon booker which makes the suns good

grandpas complain regularly about how curry has changed the game and made it all about outside shooting and efficiency instead of good old fashioned dunking and handchecking

I think you are confused . the game has never been more about dunking than it is today

I complain like a grandpa about the loving saliva mouth guard just dripping all over the court. absolutely the grossest thing in sports. Disgusting!

curry is a good role player . I mean you obviously want him on your team as a sniper assuming you can cover his defense which Durant and klay did very well

espn grandpas love stejph curry and make him an mvp candidate and draft him in all of their fantasy leagues meanwhile, the candidate of youthful thinking, Chris Paul, quietly assassinates the league with little fanfare from the ancient dullards espns hatred of Chris Paul is no doubt related to Paul’s Union leadership role . whereas the poster child of the rentier class in San Franscixo who can only celebrate the simulacrum of success as they have never worked (they have an ideological blindness to defense . they literally can’t see it because it can’t be measured with dashboard apps ) if you are a landlord or manager , Steph Curry is your man euphronius fucked around with this message at 22:55 on May 23, 2021 |
