Without spot-up shooters to provide spacing, he crumbles in these games

Curry is highly reliant on a team of at least 4 other teammates

IMO teams respect the other shooters way too much. I would make them beat me cos Curry has shown he can't create much offense when defended like a superstar

Just imagine how he'd do in previous eras when he wouldn't have teammates spreading the floor for him.
Today's 3-point shooters benefit from drive-and-kick offenses that are designed to generate large numbers of 3-point looks.. But driving and kicking for 3-pointers wasn't common or the staple of ANY team's offense until about 10 years ago.. Consequently, good 3-point shooters in the 80's and 90's didn't benefit from offenses that were based on their strength like today's 3-point shooters do.
Today's drive-and-kick (for 3-pointers) requires multiple shooters behind the line to maximize kickout targets and opportunity to swing the ball around.. Previous eras didn't have enough 3-point shooting personnel to position multiple shooters behind the line, so they could only drive-and-kick for 2-pointers, which was far less efficient (yields lower PPP) than driving and kicking for 3-pointers.. The inefficiency of driving and kicking for 2-pointers is why post-ups were the staple of offenses back then, not drive-and-kick.
But once teams had sufficient 3-point shooting personnel to position multiple shooters behind the line, and once the NBA made penetration easier via the 2005 hand-check ban, driving-and-kicking for 3-pointers became viable and a more efficient option than posting up.. Since 2005, 3-point shooters have benefited from a shift in strategy towards drive-and-kick and away from post-ups.

I've said this for awhile now. His teammates basically keep people from pressuring Curry the way they'd like to.

LOL at this.
Lebron and Wade type players need spacing because they need lanes to drive to the hoop.
If anyone does not need space, it's Curry, the person with GOAT range and a one motion shot that he can get up easily even over someone two feet away from him.
