Curry only player in the whole series with consistent offensive production. Age 37 like wtf

Grabbing and holding Curry has done nothing to stop him from going off.

Curry would averaged 50 in the ‘90s

Steph is worth the entire Rockets team by himself. Literally all of them.

They’re missing a lot of good looks. Specially from Looney and Draymond at the rim

Basically YMCA ball + one of the GOATs.

After all the hype during regular season, Amen Thompson has been extremely disappointing offensively so far in this series

Jalen Green is Baby Sprewell

Cam Whitmore is Baby Finley

Who do you prefer, Fam?

Nah by next year a lot of their young guys will have taken another step. Right now they look like frauds though. And they desperately need to trade Jalen Clarkson-I mean mean Green

The entire team is basically just an obstacle course for Steph

Refs have always took a loose approach to off ball or screening whistles, offense and defense

Curry gets held off ball as much as he gets aided by moving screens

He’s a slasher playing with zero spacing.

Post unlocked the Moving Screen badge. He got it from Draymond, just like Kendrick Perkins got it from KG. The tradition lives on.

im saying even without Butler i like GSW chances. Because houstons offense is no next level awful there's always a chance.

Amen Thompson is in the Vanderbilt tier when it comes to playoffs. Dude is a liability on offense. He basically needs to be bulletproof on defense for it to work. He's unplayable.

He needs to play as a PG with 4 shooters.

He is being gameplanned for more now so raw outlier athletism alone doesnt work
