Philly might be the favorite to come out of the east now, if they continue to fire on all cylinders. If they win today, series is over.

since you can dig out all the stats so easliy, how about the NBA Finals one of Kobe and Steph, please also include clutch buckets in the last 5 minutes!It's called knowing your audience. Easy way to shut yall Kobe stans up is cold hard numbers.
Then yall start resorting to stupid stuff like quantifying "killer instinct"
Please also send us the average points per game of the Warriors in the playoffs since Curry is on the team and that of the Lakers from 2000 onwards when Kobe started to play a major role. I will explain the rest once you dug out those numbers.

First year KD came to the Warriors and was hurt coming into the playoffs: Steph's first round against Portland (42% from 3 on 30 ppg) and conference finals against SAS (48% from 3 on 31 ppg
The year they beat OKC in 7 and KD switched sides in the summer (42% from 3 on 28 ppg)
The first year they won a title in the conference finals against HOU (50% from 3 on 31 ppg)
In terms of single playoff games, too many to list

But you just as big of a stan. You talk about Kobe and the Lakers period more than your own team. You love 'em.

Not at all, it's more so to show certain folks that only understand "greatness" through the prism of Kobe that Steph has also been great and anything but average during his playoff careerIt's the 2019 playoffs and dudes still bringing up Kobe and using him as the bar to compare players to. These are the same dudes that try to knock his legacy btw.

steph made the ultimate sacrifice in nba history. the most unselfish teammate
multiple mvps and chips and still no ego
Nah I think he’s just accepted the fact KD is BETTER THAN HIM

Game 6 Klay , Game 7 Draymond in a loss were probably the biggest games Pre KD and it was his teammates going above their normal selves

Dellavedova 'locking up' Curry is the worst NBA myth since Tim Duncan being a PF

Skewed. He shot 50% in game 1...and they won. Then he had a horrible shooting night in game 2. And they lost. After that ONE game 2....he cooked Delly the entire series. That’s what actually happened.
Expect a bounce back game from shorty. It’s a marathon

Who only understands greatness through Kobe?

is clowned for being a stan (rightfully so) but dudes like @Based Jesus and Jumpman are just as obsessed. They're just the other extreme. There's nothing unbiased about them.

There wasn’t a player better in the series. Voters got it wrong.
