Anyone who thinks Curry is better than MJ on offense at this point is dumb

If we lose this series, it may actually increase the chance of Durant returning.

You can only do so much when you are constantly sharing the floor with Green, Looney, Livingston, McKinnie ... none of these guys can shoot. They dusted off the box and 1 again this game because they aren't afraid of anyone but Curry. Imagine what would happen if GS tried that on Leonard? Wide open 3's for the other 4 guys on the floor with Leonard who can all shoot.

Context matters.

klay is murdering the raptors rn

They have tried that on other stars. Kobe picked it apart on the ball so badly they never tried it again.

they can turn it on.. i won't say its over yet.. the defense on that last possession was suffocating and the raps have been known to go cold

You gave up already? What if KD comes back for game 5?

The gods have already gifted GS with several championships and KD. Please sit down.

If raps win, its gonna be because of the 2 or 3 minute stretch where Klay sat and they played that gimmicky defense against Curry. Remarkable coaching

You obviously couldn't have handled the NBA in the 80's and 90's, you would have been in the fetal position rocking back and forth if you're that charmin-soft to seeing an inadvertent elbow.
