    Default Did Curry lose alot of respect over this playoffs?

    Dude was playing one of the greatest regular seasons ever, but come playoffs his production and efficiency dropped off, his swagger dropped off, and many game he had to be carried by his superior teammates (Klay) and the bench. First game in finals had 11 points yet still blew out the opponents.

    Dude is making Kobe look good.

    only butthurt stans and people who dont know shit about ball

    he has battled back from injury and set the record for points in an OT

    he dropped something like 35/7/7 in the last 3 games vs OKC

    I think he is averaging 30+/5+/5+ in games where he averages more than 20 minutes (discounting the blow outs where he sits early)

    he has been great and playing the same winning basketball he has for the past 2 seasons, the only thing that has been difference from the regular season is he hasn't put up as large of raw stats, this is due to injury and the increase in attention that curry sees in the playoffs which in turn opens up the rest of the floor for his team

    Curry is not injured.

    To the casual masses, probably not, but to real basketball heads he's taken a hit. It's becoming more apparent that while Curry is a superstar player at his best, he's not temperamentally in the Jordan zone of competitiveness, and is being propped up by a very deep team. This is a 60-63 win team without Curry.

    This playoffs just proved that curry is willing to sacrifice stats for wins. He lets role players get hot while just being a decoy. Thats respect. Winner mentality. Hed rather reserve his stamina for crunch time.

    Unlike that player in cleveland who would secure his stats right away during 1st to 3rd so when they finally lose, his stupid stans would just excuse him coz he has the stats already

    Nonsense. Curry's spurts of poor play are not on any level tactical coups. He simply kept missing shots and just faded out. In Klay's heroic game vs. OKC Curry had basically given up. Klay looked around and was like "Screw it" and just kept shooting and making it; there was no analysis from Curry going on like "My teammate is shooting well, let me not do anything".

    Didn't play in half of them and averaging 25/6/6 in games he has. He's fine.

    Curry averaged 28/6/6 with a TS of 61% against OKC, and lit it up in the elimination games, and people are acting like he has played badly.

    Curry has a higher TS in this playoffs than Kobe ever had in his entire career. He is averaging 27.2 pts per 36 minutes in the playoffs. Kobe's highest ever scoring per 36 minutes in the playoffs was 27.5.

    What? Thats how you play the game. Let role players get hot first. He only takes open shots. Curry has never isod until its crunch time.

    How many MVP's even made the Finals in the last decade? Only LeBron twice in Miami I think.

    I wonder if all those MVP's would sacrifice 'respect' for a chance at a ring.

    At the end of the day, Warriors are a great team without Curry.
    With Curry, they are legendary.
