Analyzing Curry's 2016 playoffs: What happened?

[FKAri]

I remember that game when he finally snapped and threw his pacifier towards a cavs fan.

[Rico2016]

I'm still waiting. I heard another suggest Curry was injured so it's a reminder to bump this when people say that.

3-1 before suspension. 0-3 after suspension.

At the moment Curry was fouled out of game 6, he had 30 points making it his second highest scoring game of the series.

That losing streak against the cavs just carried on to the next season when the dubs lost in their rival's floor on christmas day.

Okay but...LeBron had his GREATEST Finals game in all of NBA history with Draymond in the line up. Look it up. Game 6 of the NBA Finals in 2016. That performance sealed the deal, snatched the ring away from your formerly rolling 73 win Warriors. Accept that and you will have peace.

And why are you ducking this piece of knowledge:



Does this get ignored because of your agenda?

It's fitting that fans of that lesser player think a game that required the opposing star player to get fouled out sealed the deal to anything. Those numbers that some of you apparently think so much of don't really mean that much considering Curry scored less in his victories. Curry is known for getting his teammates in favorable position to kill the opponent if the opponent overcommits to shutting Curry down. Yet he can score so much in bunches that unlike lesser players I haven't heard of an opposing coach saying they can live with him getting his.

Agendas? Being at peace? Curry is 3-1 against that lesser player in the finals and swept him in the last meeting. The ones who keep bringing up the 2016 finals are the lesser player's fans with their delusional takes. If you feel the compulsion to keep talking about it it is because you know in your heart of hearts the stories you tell about it are pure drivel. The Thunder in 2016 and the Raptors in 2019 were more impressive.

The injury clearly hurt him. And it was actually permanent.

Curry has never played defense or isolation at the same level as 2015 and 2016, after that MCL injury.

He bulked up, and started incorporating draw foul tactics the next few years to offset it.

Curry was clearly hurt but even a hurt Curry, can and will hurt you. Portland and OKC learned that.

Cleveland took OKC’s gameplan of switching and loaded up on the screen game with LeBron as the switchable defender and crushed them.

Curry was at 95% with a little lower motor is still run away MVP. But he got crushed regardless. No one is healthy in the 95th to 100th games of a season.

Iggy's hurt back was the biggest culprit. More than the Draymond or the Bogut injury or Curry "injury".

Really? You don't think Curry disappearing under the brightest lights wasn't the biggest culprit? The leader and commander of a 73-win team goes up 3-1 and shits the bed and you don't think that affects his troops?

[ThatCoolKid]

Lebron locks up Point Guards on the defensive end. Curry wasn't back to 100% and wasn't ready for LeFreight Train James.

Yet the little rodent was somehow 3-1 over him in the finals.

Oh, and it sucks to see cleveland getting swept by their rivals in their last consecutive finals meeting.

LeBron outplayed Curry every single time. Thank goodness for Papa Durant swooping in to save him.

Like a knight in shining armor.

If the warriors in 2018 were also injury-riddled as they were last year, then the cavs would have won that finals.

Maybe, maybe not. Love was truly cancerous against the Warriors. I'm talking about his defense only. Just unplayable versus GS. The 19 Raptors were MUCH better than the 18 Cavs. Absolutely insane defense.

That, and the raptors have a great coach who knows how to manage his players very well.

The cavs, on the other hand, also had a retarded trash coach who sucked very much in doing his job.
