    That Curry won the series and not Green.

    Not sure what they could have done. The best player took over. Not much you can do defensively.

    Offense is another story.

    Maybe you should collect your thoughts before typing then...

    Yeah what's wrong with it? Curry is the reason the warriors are so dominant.

    Thinking green is better than Curry is laughable

    I think the point is, his defense would be much more valuable to us than his lack of shooting. A DPOY will always have great impact, especially in our defense he would fit in just right.

    I never questioned his defense, just how he would fit in our offense when he have had a stretch 4 for a long time

    Curry, Green, Klay, and Durant are the reasons Warriors are so dominant.

    That does not mean Green is better than Curry.

    You seriously have logic issues.

    That team is not going to be as dominant as they have if you removed Green from that team.

    No one ever said Green was better than Curry.

    A simple slip PnR, no wonder Bzdelik got the boot.

    It seemed like they didn't really prepare for a Durant injury, and to be fair I don't think anyone expected them to play like it was 2015 or 16

    This is when you miss Ariza. If we still have Ariza, Ariza and Tucker will end Warriors pick and roll.

    Absolutely, it threw them for a loop. Still tho a slip PnR isn’t new. CP3 hedging to either side negates the slip.

    Yeah. And it's interesting they went away from the trap.

    I thought PJ Tucker did a good enough job on curry, but what more can you do

    I mean you said it yourself bro, he wouldn’t suck on offense(her be real good IMO) so if he wouldn’t suck in our offense and he makes our defense way better than what are we even talking about. You think they still beat us if we have Draymond lol no chance

    I'm saying the fit on offense might be a bit weird. Thats all. Green likes pace and ball movement. Harden doesnt.

    Depending on who they replace green with, they'll probably still win with Curry going off

    You really dont understand the value of Green,

    He is unique and not very easily replaceable.

    Not many players in the league, if any, can take away Clint's lob play while protecting the pick and roll of the Rockets.

    The only other possible candidate is Giannis.
