    It's too early to know what Klay can become but if we are looking at just Harden and Lin for Curry base on their level and what their being paid. I would take Curry any day, of course after Curry's contract is up your paying him top $$$.

    The grass always looks greener on the other side....

    That is until, you jump over the fence and land in some cow pie

    I will the Rockets backcourt any day....as a matter of fact I would take Asik, Parsons, Harden and Lin and our rotating 4 over their starting 5

    I would rather have Harden over Curry no doubt about it.

    When Curry's shots aren't falling he's useless.

    Harden can find ways to score even if his shot isn't falling. Harden is also a better passer and rebounder.

    Arguable. Steph's passing was a nice surprise this season. Really worked on it over the offseason

    Wow, so talented this Warriors team, they have a good player at every position, starters and bench. Seems like it's going to be many years of battle between these guys and the Rockets. We need you Dwight!

    Curry is injury prone and can't get to the Line.

    Thompson is Kevin Martin light with the way he disappears for games at a time.

    Yeah Realist, you done goofed.

    If Barnes didn't go down Warriors could have won given how terrible Manu and Parker were.

    Curry is two ankles away from being a chucker instead of a miracle worker, so no I don't think they are better than ours back court even with Lin's erratic performance.

    But really both pairs are still a few years away from their prime so the point of this thread is no more than wanking to each poster's favorite team.

    It's nice we did that, but several reasons we shouldn't take them lightly and could use Dwight:

    1. they won more games in the regular season
    2. two of the wins we still had PPat
    3. Bogut wasn't 100% during the season
    4. Rookie Barnes has come into his own this post-season
    5. Mark Jackson has improved
    6. They advanced
    7. Rush will be back
    8. They won the last game
    9. Post play is more important in the playoffs

    Our backcourt lost to a depleted Thunder squad's backcourt which was Reggie Jackson and Kevin Martin, with a cameo by Derek Fisher.

    You really want to argue that the Warriors backcourt isn't that good because they lost a playoff series to the Spurs?

    Please, you aren't fooling anyone with your illogical posts. The worst part is, you think you are being clever.

    I am clever and you're just plain ignorant. As soon as you posted your jock sniffing warrior reach around thread they showed their true colors. Their team has injury prone chuckers and you think they are better than us? We beat them in Oracle TWICE!! we lost to them once. Goes to show you aren't a Rocket fan. I'll make a mental note and I'll never let you live it down. Congrats on your two star thread.

    I don't think you can really bring up our backcourt performance against the Thunder.

    We were missing Lin for most of the series.
    Thunder were missing Westbrook.

    Give it a few more years of match-ups between the two back courts to get a definitive answer.

    As for now, its very unclear and you have top mostly judge on potential.
