Two pairs of promising youngs, which pair would you rather have to win games?

Definitely the latter. The only issue is Curry's ankles. I think he's a better player than George and Klay is better than Lance.

Lance isn't on the same level as the other guys. Unfair comparison IMO.

He probably meant George Hill, not Paul George.

Anyway, def Curry/Klay

They're supporting players though, so they only really get judged if they perform well or really, really poorly. Klay had a few great moments in this playoff run (7 threes in a half, that game ended up being a win in in which he went fro 34/14, he started out the playoffs with two games where he went for 43 points on 18/30 shooting, he also threw in a couple 19/6 games.) I haven't been up on what Stephenson has done but I know Klay is at that point in his career where people don't really give him much flack for the bad games.

Curry > George
Klay > Stephenson

And quite a bit too.
