Golden state won’t make the playoffs. The Warriors were better with curry off the court than on the court this season. He’s just not on that level anymore.

IMO you’re not a top 5 player if your team is better when you are off the court than on. Shouldn’t a team be much better with their best player on the court? Yes of course. Curry ain’t that dude anymore.

LINK


With curry on the court they only outscore the opponent by a meager 2.5 points per 100 possession. When he goes off the court the team is better and outscores the opponent by 3.1 points per 100 possessions.

Unheard of for a supposed top 5 player.

I mean there’s plenty of other categories in that link that favor Curry you’re just cherry picking certain categories. Where would you rank him right now?

Like what? the team is better offensively with him on the floor but they are even better defensively with him off the floor making them better with him on the bench that in the game over the season.

And this a full season stat not a little 10-20 game sample.

Unfortunately, the Suns destroyed the T-Wolves (thereby giving the Suns the six seed), because I know the Suns and Warriors would clap the Fakers into the Lottery. The Fakers are a terrible matchup for Nawlins. Even though I predicted the Pelicants to lose to the Fakers, the Clap Watch will be ON.

They didn’t get the 6 because they won. They got it because the pelicans are a loser franchise

Will be interesting how they do being so young


Brett Usher
@UsherNBA

SGA this season recorded FIFTEEN games of 30+ points and 5+ assists with one or zero turnovers

No other player in the 42 years for which full turnover data is available has registered more than nine such games in a season

Shai also tied an NBA record with 41 games of 30+ points on 60+ percent true shooting (and set a record if you want to bump that TS% threshold up to 61)

He finished second in the league in steals per game and in the 97th percentile for defensive EPM

Most importantly, he led the second youngest team in the NBA to 57 wins and the number one seed in the West

We appreciate the respect but it's gonna be Cleveland in 5. This team will get flooded with points it can't answer for.
