its disingenuous kind of like saying Kobe was a robin to shaq because shaq has the finals mvps even though Kobe was putting up 30 a game at 21 against the spurs, Kings, etc. it’s like...you can’t watch bean go 48&15 on the kings on the road in a close out game and call him a robin. It’s 1A and 1B. Idk how you watch the Lakers after in 01 or 02 and think Kobe is 2nd fiddle. That’s just me but shaq was better than Kobe so I do get it to a degree

with steph it’s even worse because he was certified as a Batman before KD even got there

the last 4 seasons that the warriors had prior to KD getting there they averaged 59.5 wins, got a chip, two finals appearances and was a 2x mvp with a 73(!) win season to boot. That’s factually what happened. I’m not even gonna get into steph’s numbers during that stretch because you already know what’s good lol

to say that is a robin is insane and borderline trolling especially since it’s not like steph’s production fell off a cliff when KD got there. It’s a terrible take

You may be right but that didn't stop the masses from screaming it from every mountain top with regards to Kobe and Shaq who were the same dynamic as KD and Steph. And I know for a fact people in here used it against Bean until 09 and 10. Just want THEM to keep that same energy with Wardell.

The same energy can’t be applied to Steph as Kobe though because technically, up until 2009 he hadnt “done it” without shaq. It was a dumb critique

which only makes the steph stuff even dumber because he actually had done it as a number 1 by the time KD got there.
 
You'd think multiple things can't be true with some of the ridiculous responses in here.

Was Curry good as THE guy in the 2015 Finals against a Cavs team that had no Love and 1 game of Kyrie? Yes.

In the 2016 Finals, when that Cavs team was back fully healthy, was Curry a below average shooter and bad defender, and the primary reason the Warriors lost as THE guy? Yes.

In the 2017 Finals, was KD the best player on that team, Finals MVP, and was Curry incredible alongside him? Yes.

In the 2018 Finals, against a worse Cavs team with no Kyrie, was KD the best player on that team, Finals MVP, and was Curry incredible alongside him? Yes.

In the 2019 Finals, with no KD, was Curry a below average shooter and bad defender as THE guy when playing against a healthy Raptors team? Yes.

This really isn't that hard.

After your first sentence....everything is null and void.

Once you win as THE guy...you’re the guy. Period.

That’s the simple part.
 
What are you talking about bro for real :lol:

y’all play the steph was the guy against an injury riddled cavs team in 15’ but give bron his chip in 16’ :lol: a win is a win a chip is a chip

Saying KD > Steph because of the finals isnt wild. I feel it. But throughout the tenure with GSW, how did the warriors perform with just steph and no KD as opposed to vice versa? That just alludes to how close they actually were. It’s a 1A and 1B situation not Batman and robin.

you doin this thing where you’re allowing a few series against the cavs in which KD was better take away from his entire resume pre KD in which he without a doubt proved he was THE GUY
 
Has Steph won a title w/o injury help or KD?

You *****s live in some dreamland...of scales being set perfectly for somebody to win a title :lol.

All this “if” game is dumb. Steph Curry as a #1 option led his team to a championship. There ALOT that goes into that. Shoot...leading your team to 67 wins and a #1 seed goes into that.

I hate it here :{
 
IMO like I said, the only way you can say Steph not the guy is because you demean and trivialize winning.

he did it. He won as a #1 option, then in the very next season gave y’all 73 wins and a 3-1 lead in the finals. That series wasn’t his finest moment but he got there AGAIN after doing it the year before.

this is borderline trolling but we quarantined so **** it lol
 
A chip is a chip fam. You take away steph’s chip in 15 you gotta take away bron chip in 16 then.
Who is taking away chips? Y'all dudes talking crazy.

Why would you take away Bron's chip in 2016? Because Bogut got hurt in Game 5?
 
take away the raptors chip too.

you gotta win the games

Take away one of the Lakers chips too. TD wasn’t healthy in 2000 and the spurs swept them the year before so 🤷🏾‍♂️

Take away zeke chip in 89 magic wasn’t there

take away magic chip in 88 zeke ankle wasn’t right
 
Now that I think of it it is pretty funny nobody gives a ****/holds against him that Kawhi went through a decimated Warriors team :lol:

Because draymond was suspended in game 5
Andre’s back gave out at the same time
And bogut’s knee blew out

you can try and trivialize this but in the 6 games the warriors played against the cavs that year prior to game 5 they blew the doors off of them.
