Kevin Durant makes his team mates worse while Steph Curry makes his team mates better. Steph Curry won with his second best player being Klay Thompson. Kevin Durant couldn't win with Russell Westbrook and James Harden.

Durant-Ball has too much isolation instead of creating for teammates. THere are no excuses for an MVP candidate to be wasted like that because of Durant-Ball. You should be able to win the championship with a trio of Harden, Westbrook, and Durant.

:kobe: .. Everyone knows Lebron shot poorly against everyone, so Iggy's D was overrated.

Also, Lebron shot 30% against a 207 pound, 6'6" role player, so now we know for sure that MJ, the goat 6'6" defender would've locked up Lebron pretty easily.

We can now easily say that MJ would massacre Lebron in 1-on-1, since a homeless man's MJ made Lebron shoot 30%.

Iggy is twice the defender MJ ever was


and Lebrons 36 points on 40% >>> Mjs 27 points on 40% vs. 6'3 Gary Payton


Mj would probably shoot 25% vs LeBron if Gary Payton makes him so bad



Mj has 0 chance vs LeBron

Jordan and Curry won with Scottie Pippen and Klay Thompson.

LeBron and Durant lost with Dwyane Wade, Chris Bosh, Russell Westbrook, and James Harden.

Jordan and Curry are real superstars while LeBron and Durant are pseudo-stars that fail in the Finals... even with multiple Hall of Fame teammates.

Curry still hasn't lost with multiple HoF teammates

Klay Thompson HoF - no

Draymond Green HoF - he has an outside shot at making it

At the very most Curry lost with 1 Hall of Fame teammate, not two[/b], like LeBron James and Kevin Durant did with D.Wade, Chris Bosh, and Russell Westbrook and James Harden

Let it be known that Curry was also suffering from a a major MCL injury which drastically effected his performance in comparison from 2015

Most 4th Quarter Points during the Finals

1995 Shaquille O'Neal 11.5
2000 Shaquille O'Neal 11.5 (61.1% TS)
2015 Stephen Curry 10.8 (75.1% TS)
1997 Michael Jordan 10.7 (55.1% TS)
1998 Michael Jordan 10.6 (50.6% TS)
2011 Dirk Nowitzki 10.3 (68.0% TS)
1993 Michael Jordan 10.3


In the 2016 Finals he was not able to play as well as he did in 2015

What happened in 2016 that didn't happen in 2015? [i]The major MCL injury

Therefore we can conclude that Curry's MCL injury was the differentiating factor which lowered Curry's production

Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't Curry actively recruit Durant because he needs a first option who actually shows up in the finals?

The Warriors is Durant's team now.

The Warriors is Durant's team now.

Curry is the most efficient scorer, best ball handler, and distributor on Golden State, he is the first option.

It will be a mistake for Durant, who is the less efficient player, to be taking a higher volume of shots.
