Klay/Curry are the goat three-point shooters - defending the Warriors' goat 3-point threats opens up other things in the Warriors' offense..

plus they have Durant - so that's the 2 goat shooters plus an elite shooter - that's the best collection of shooting ever, easily.. :confusedshrug:

Ultimately, today's game is a 3-pt contest where the best 3-pt shooters will win - that's the Warriors, even though other teams have better actual basketball players

Btw, the 3-pt contest notion is Popovich's opinion of today's game.. are you guys saying he's wrong and you know more?

They live & die by the three without Durant. Klay and Steph can be human and Durant would still carry them to a victory in crunch time (as evidenced in the Houston series).

If you have the two GOAT shooters, chances are at least one of them will be good from three.

Why do you fault them for being good at their job?


The 96 Bulls had MJ at the 2, Pippen at the 3, and Rodman at the 4. Why is it okay for the Bulls to have The top 3 perimeter defenders on 1 team but gsw cant have the top 3 shooters?

Because Rodman was 36 years old - he averaged 4/8 for the entire 1997 playoffs and wasn't the starter in the 98' playoffs

Pippen averaged 17 on 41% for the 96-98' playoffs, so he was also past his prime

Whereas these Warriors are in their prime, and also living off a gimmick, not good ol fashioned D

Durant is a HORRIBLE shooter. Only thing he excels at is midrange jumpshot and he needs several dribbles to get in rhythm.

Worse.

He's a HORRIBLE team defender and team offensive player. Its why Warriors look faster and more fluid on both sides of ball.

But my point was other teams have Better and more 3 point shooters. Rockets make more. Harden makes more than Curry.
