Not when you consider the one remaining star is superman. His kryptonite (total Spurs-like team ball) was taken out by another team in the West luckily.

Seemed odd that Delly missed the presser. Considering how much energy he used to run through screens to defend Curry and Co, it's not that surprising. I think you'd need to do lines of coke to keep that up.
Beverley and his agent are going to make a killing this offseason. Dellavadova's play added a lot more value to Beverley's game.
except Bev is way more selfish as a team defender than Delly, no way he does what delly has done, he gambles way too much
Man the adjustments for Game 4 from both of these coaches is going to be fascinating. Cavs should be a little worried that Steph found some rhythm at the end of the game. I haven't rooted this hard for a basketball team not named the Rockets since Miami in 2006.
Your team has been healthy all year.. You have not faced a single team with their starting point guard in the playoffs... You are facing a Cavs team without two of their three best players.... and you are b****ing about the foul calls in game three? Also, not so easy when illegal screens are called properly, is it? The Warriors should win this series, but if they don't, it will be an all time epic choke job.
Yeah, Delly is a smarter defender. I wouldn't call Bev seflish...he just takes a lot of risks. I do think this is upping his value. Guys will want that on their team to guard all the insanely good guards on other teams. Just a guy whose role is to be grit and grind against guards.
No one has to know the truth though. His agent is probably going to make the comparison over and over again like they're the same player. I mean, on the surface the comparison makes sense since the typical adjectives used to describe both players are the same from casual observers.
Why is that? Bev's defense was not that good this season. Plus he's constantly getting injured, especially late in the season right as the playoffs are approaching.
