    The only reason the Rockets have had a chance against them the last two years is because of Curry’s nonexistent defense. There’s a reason you saw Dantoni do anything he could to get him on Harden or CP, and that’s the reason Dantoni fell in love with iso ball so much.

    Curry is being exposed. Phenomenal shooter but the product of a system. When he had four all stars, picks galore
    and shooters to spread the floor he looked amazing but only 2 other all stars and he's fallen flat.

    They've been stacked with Curry, Thompson, Green, Iguadala even before they got Durant.

    Harden gets a lot of heat but he led teams less talented than Curry's roster to the playoffs.

    Also shows Klay Thompson is really an amazing shooter, player and defender.

    Curry is the guard version of the 2009 Dwight Howard. Really good player when the team is completely built around his strengths and weaknesses. I bet Steph has a new found appreciation for Bogut's illegal screens, or Klay/Iggy constantly hiding him on the defensive end, or being able to use Durant as a crutch.

    Also, this will be a good time to see what the 2016 Coach of the Year is actually made of. Will he make the playoffs with only 3 All-Stars (with only 1 MVP and 1 DPOY among them)?

    He's fake garbage who inherited a team of All-Stars. Hate Kerr more than anyone else in the league

    You make some fair points but it doesn't really matter. Not really. We lost. I firmly believe Harden is a better player than Curry AND that Game 5/Game 6 is probably one of the best opportunites to change the narrative/define his legacy. He didn't take it. So be it.

    It's still early, but the fact that no one expects a team with a in-prime two-time MVP to make any noise speaks volumes. Especially since his team isn't garbage.

    Then his team should compete with him, an all nba caliber in Green, Russell and good coaching.

    This season shall serve full-proof, Curry, is not, never was, and never will be better than James Edward Harden Jr.

    Beard habitually reaches the playoffs (mostly top seed) regardless of teammates, teammates' health, and coaches.... IN THE WEST.

    Curry barely wins WITH an All-Star teammate. Zero FMVPs despite having three rings.

    It’s crazy the 2 FMVP the Warriors had are no longer on the team.

    Well, that is convenient.

    Harden deep down wants to go thru a dynasty and win 3 titles or 4.....and Curry wants to individually dominate like Harden and drag his team to the playoffs by himself.

    If curry wants to ineividually dominate why cant he do it this year with gsw?

    And harden left okc and he aint no cupcake or bandwagoner

    Harden truly believes he can get it done just with another superstar. Not 3
