I wonder if those who claim Curry is somehow overrated can admit that they are way off. Without him the Warriors are a borderline line playoff team. Finished last season 7-10 with him hurt and now this year they are 2-6 since he went down this year. With him in the lineup they are literally the biggest favorites in American sports history and without him they are another mediocre NBA team. But yeah he’s overrated. He and LeBron have dictated the last 8 champions and this year is clearly no different. By far the two most significant players of this decade and it’s not even debatable.

Very true. Curry is an absolute Top 3 player in the NBA and the best player on the Warriors. His value has been highlighted by their current play without him. They are playing terrible basketball at the moment

The rest of the team aren't slouches in the slightest they are just not playing "together".

They had a system and it ran like a top.  Take out any one of their components and the machine stops working.

Remember when Green got suspended during the finals?  They didn't function right as a team and the Cavs capitalized on it.

Yes, Durant and Klay are great, but losing Curry has highlighted their lack of depth this year. No consistent player at the C position, especially with Green out also. Iggy is starting to show his age and apart from Livingstone, the rest of the bench are average at best. With all players back fit, they are still the best team in the league, but they really do not have the bench depth they used to have. Knowing how good the Warriors FO is, they will still have moves coming before trade deadline to shore that up

I don't want to hear another word on a Raptors/Warriors final.

All the sports pundits just need to stop.

Man it must be a slow time for basketball writing...

Luca Doncic?

Are we taking him seriously?

Bulls finally pull the trigger and fire Hoiberg. Great decision, but FO should also be in firing line. I'll give them a reprieve until they pick up the option on Parker. If that happens - sack GARPAX!!
I will give them some credit on the last 2 drafts, Laurie and Wendell are both very good picks
