DID NOT SAY THAT. They traded a bench for him and they had neither during playoffs. That’s my point. I’m not the trash GS doctors, management and coaching staff. I know 100% he should of NOT touched the floor

Weird proclamation. The Warriors are tiers above the Knicks. Ask any owner or most fans, they'd rather have their team competing in the playoffs and not sitting at home.

Yeah the total pts thing just says they played a lot of games. In the 01 playoffs Shaq avg 30 and 15. Kobe avg 29, 7, 6.

So the 73-9 warriors needed the 2nd best player in the league to defeat a team they already beat in the finals the year prior?
Always felt that Lebron with both Kyrie and Love present could've won the '15 Finals.
GSW with Durant though, is a lock for the championship - no exceptions barring injury as we saw. As a Toronto fan, I thought our ceiling was winning the ECF with a beatdown or maybe 1 victory max with a full strength GSW squad.

impressive because you know FVV was definitely getting double and triple teamed and trapped on offense just like steph
The steph slander is well warranted, im not disputing that, but some of the arguments yall put out there are disingenuous as hell

Steph's body language was piss poor all series. Which is a shame after how well he played against Houston and wcf when dude was attacking getting to the rim nonstop. I know the defenses are basically night and day but keeping the same energy is crucial and steph did not do that.
Iggy came to play cousins literally gave whatever he could, draymond had a great game but with his two main scorers out he got outscored individually by both of the other teams point guards. I know hes a cool guy and u guys are obsessed with his wife but he looked awful. Impressionable people wanna compare him to magic and Kobe but he really might be in that harden, Westbrook category at the end of the day...

Everybody plays hurt this time of the year. The Knicks organization has been a Massive L for the last 2 decades.

I don’t even know what you think i was trying to get at. But let me explain it.
Steph was bad on offense and dog**** on defense.

Whenever an NBA team can play a Box and 1 in a regular season game, let alone in a Finals series that's just disrespectful
Magic, Stockton, IT or whomever else were going out worse than Steph did in those same circumstances

Bad on offense? He was terrible in games 2 and 6 but i wouldnt say he was bad for the series. I dont think he played up to the standard we’ve become accustomed to seeing. This is magnified by the fact that his threes weren’t falling consistently and he didnt have a patented flurry of points, but not sure how averaging 30/6 is “bad”?

Say what? He shot 34% from 3. This is the best shooter ever. That's terrible by his standards.

but that’s what I’m sayin, he didn’t play well relative to his standard..for majority of other players, if they drop 30/6 over six games, that’d be considered a strong series for them

How quickly we forget...
Curry left his contacts in overnight between games 4 & 5 so that could explain his poor play. Can't really expect him to play well at 80% health.
