Yes. Even Lowry was better against Cleveland and he didn't have HCA

However, Lowry was not suffering from an MCL injury
The MCL is one of four ligaments connecting the femur bone to the tibia at the knee. It helps keep the knee stable as it moves from the outside to the inside.
So the lateral movements are going to put pressure on the ligament.
Athletic trainers refer to what’s called a “valgus” position — that’s when the knee is turned inward toward the center of the body, and the MCL stretches to keep the joint stable.
Most people naturally stand in a slight valgus position, meaning they are putting a little pressure on their MCL without even trying. Playing basketball just adds to that stress, especially during quick lateral movements
“That valgus position occurs pretty often in basketball,” said Meredith Petschauer, an exercise and sports science professor at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, “because what you have to do in basketball all the time is plant your foot and turn in a different direction.”
Here is a comparison between the two when they were both healthy

I'm almost convinced if you just bench Curry the entire series and give his minutes to Barbosa and maybe Livingston, GSW win.
That's how great the supporting cast it.
It took Lebron/Kyire going god mode and carrying Cleveland.

It's hard to know exactly how this would go, but my feeling is that the warriors lose in six games. I like Dame, but he relies on his 3ball too much, and i think the cavs would stick it to him defensively. Dame and Curry are both "shooters" who score a ton of points, but Curry is the greatest shooter ever, and much more elusive with the basketball and even considering the spacing for the warriors, curry would still finish a bit better.

Curry wasn't injured. You aren't a team doctor and probably never even took a anatomy course in high school to know what you're talking about, just copy and pasting stuff that fits your agenda off google. :facepalm

The time table for return of an MCL sprain is 2 to 4 weeks.
(Keep in mind that healing timetable is for every day activity, nothing more strenuous than walking up one flight of stairs, NOT playing professional basketball)
Stephen Curry returned from the injury after only 2 weeks because the Warriors were struggling against Portland without him.
Stephen Curry re-aggravated his knee injury by coming back too early and then playing 40+ minutes of playoff basketball plus overtime in his record setting performance against Portland.

No question they would
GSW bench and Green were the only ones hurting Cleveland
If Lillard was there he wouldnt be clanking and clunking 3's like Curry was
Dude couldnt even hit the rim at the end of gm7
Not to mention all those crucial turnovers. Pa. The. Tic.
Lillard would of won FMVP also
