    What L? I stated a statistical fact. How can that possibly be incorrect?

    In any case, Ryan Anderson, EGO, and Beverley were all plus shooters, right? Well, all 3 of them averaged around 30 mpg. It's easy to get assists when you're an elite passer surrounded by plus shooters.

    After the embarrassing failure tonight, it makes you wonder if Curry is a legit super star or really just an elite role player?

    This Curry stan probably doesn’t even know that EG shot 38% from the field and 34% from 3 after the ASB in 16-17. Ariza shot 32% after the ASB.

    yet Harden still averaged 11 apg

    this moron really thinks Harden had incredible shooters around him that year, and that’s why he didn’t average a measly 6 apg like Curry

    Harden would average 10 apg and score close to 30 with this current Warriors roster while making the playoffs, or he’d just continue doing what he’d been doing and average 34 and 7

    Harden wouldn’t have even been in the play-in...he rolled up to PHX with no KD or Kyrie and won...he did the same thing in Portland

    Players that would have taken this Warrior rosters to the playoffs (the requirement for making the playoffs is simply 8th seed in the Conference):

    1) Larry Bird
    2) James Harden
    3) Ja Morant

    nope...I provided all the facts and context and obliterated u once again...let’s face it, you’re not capable of counteracting anything, and at this point, I’m just knocking u out like you’re Nate Robinson

    destroying your weak posts isn’t even a challenge...quit while you’re 100 miles behind

    Curry would have made the playoffs if he started the season 100 games ahead and a few superstars on the team.

    No not really, the Warriors team right now is not any less talented than what Harden worked with in 2017. I'll take Draymond Green over Capela or any other player the Rockets had.

    Great players make others better. They raise the level of their teammates. Curry failed to make his teammates better because... drumroll... he’s not great!

    It's funny that you think you can argue against statistics. You really are stupid, aren't you?

    Watching them lose tonight was fun to see.

    My only negative thing to say about Curry’s season is how much the media was giddy over it.

    He really had a great season. Just not worthy of the MVP consideration and not quite worthy of the overall media felating he received.

    Draymond Green will go to the HOF b/c of Curry.

    The 2017 Rockets was custom built around Harden. They may have had less individual talent, but they were a significantly better team.

    I'd rather have Capela over current Draymond Green. There's something to be said for size and interior defense.

    Seriously? You've shown a childish understanding of basketball. You literally didn't understand how having plus shooters improved assist numbers.

    How exactly do you expect Curry to get assists? Look at the GSW roster. Whose going to make baskets for them?

    Turnovers, missed shot and unclutch and turnover prone in the clutch.He is not a good playmaker. He was utter garbage with the ball as a playmaker. That is what separates harden and Lebron from Stephanie is play making. Harden will get you the same amount of points but he will also generate more points for his teammates with his playmaking

    Wwweeeeeeeekkkkkk000000000000!

    No matter what happens, you’ll be forced to get off Clutchfans at some point and deal with it. I hope it’s painful because I felt that pain too sharply when the Warriors snuffed us out too many times. It sucks, but you need it for your own personal growth. Perhaps it will teach you some empathy for those that are loyal fans of a team who got close but couldn’t quite get over the hump.

    This is what failure looks like. Curry has embodied failure and the excuses don’t cut it because the stat you can’t argue your way out of is this: eliminated, two losses to end the season, not doing enough to keep going, failure, loss, having less points when the buzzer goes off.
