He's got 3 championships. And for 3 Finals he wasn't anywhere near the best player on the court, let alone his own team. How long did his hand keep him out last year? An injury that keeps someone out for weeks in rugby league. If you don't think there were talks internal at the Warriors to keep the pretty boy out all season so his image wouldn't be ruined, I don't know what to tell you. This is yet another game he's without his all star teammates. This is yet another game he's getting blown. the. f*ck. out. He is an utter embarrassment trying to carry teams like the real superstars do. Greatest shooter in the NBA without a doubt. Superstar? hahaha get the f*ck out of here. THE BEST PART OF CURRY'S CAREER THOUGH: running AWAY from the ball handler - the player he was defending - to the corner to grab his teammates jersey to force him to defend the action because little Steph couldn't handle it. Imagine being a coach and watching the offensive team getting into their set on the 3 point line, and seeing your defender RUN AWAY FROM THE BALL LEAVING A WIDE OPEN LANE TO THE RING.
LOL at the LOFs and Harden haters here curry is a "system" player so he needs a championship coach and team around him to help him win??
What in the world is this take? Try to hide him? You do realise a huge part of the Rockets putting Harden in a switch onto the big is because... HE IS ONE OF THE BEST DEFENDERS IN THE POST IN THE LEAGUE. hahahaha. 'hiding'. Or using his strength? Potato/potato
The two are inclusive no doubt. Why embarrass Steph/this organisation all season when we can just say he's injured and get a good draft pick.
this same situation would have happened last year had curry not faked the severity of his wrist injury. a wrist injury 5 games into the seaosn, kept him out all year lol
nope wiggins can actually shoot, westbrick can not. westbrick only shot as high as he did from the field because of hardens gravity
Ahh yes. 'Hiding'. Because it's hiding diverting him away from what he isn't great at, to something he is great it. You want to know what's hilarious? The amount of teams who go out of their offensive sets just to get the ball into the post against Harden. 'hiding'. hahahah good one.
The difference is that Westbrook can create his own shot. Bro, you seriously cannot be comparing Westbrook to Wiggins right now. And people get on me for 'defending' Westbrook but this the kind of disrespect he gets.
If the Warriors want him gone, they’ll have to attach Minnesota’s top-3-protected 2021 first-round pick for a rebuilding team to consider biting. Wiggins easily has the worst contract in the league relative to his on-court impact.
wiggins and russell can create their own shot out of isolations as well. russell was rated very high in iso per synergy sports
By having Harden guard opposing PF's, consider how much that disrupted our team defense. It meant we needed a front court small enough to guard wings which meant we were forced to be undersized. It necessitated "small-ball".
So it’s safe to say the Warriors dynasty is officially over. Finally! It looked like they were going to win at least 5 championships. They ended up winning one more then the mighty Miami Heat dream team of LeBron, Wade, and Bosh. What doomed the Warriors at the end was injuries. it sucks that once they are gone, the Lakers take their place. Rockets can’t catch a break.
curry is a terriffic shooter when he doesnt have to exert himself on defense, just like harden would be a great shooter if he didnt have to exert himself on defense. Harden in okc his last year had a 66 TS% when he played limited minutes, the warriors have essentially set and put in place a system in which curry doesnt have to iniate the offense( draymond does that), or guard his assignment( klay does that). Common sense says the less you have to do, the more effecient you will be. When curry has to do everything any other star player does, his numbers will come crashing down. Its not me hating. its just basic math and science. Harden having a 63 TS% while averaging 34 is insane and was arguably better than his 2019 season
