Not just the Bay, league wide. It's going to produce a generation of basketball players in 5-8 years that are so much better at shooting threes than previous generations because they're gonna focus on it A LOT right now as kids.

Curry clearly has so much more impact than KD.

Not even an argument.

It's pretty much impossible to legit break down defenders off isolation for an entire game with the team running basically no other offense. He doesn't get to rest 5 mins and then pick a spot like Curry


Don’t disagree. Especially when he has to play defense also

Prob because he comes and goes out of games. Also, you'd be surprised how much different Golden State looks on defense without KD

How in the hell do you lose Curry right now? Face guard him, nothing else.

Uncharacteristic number of iso possessions for the Dubs today. Offense just feels all out of loop.

As Curry goes, so do the Dubs. There's something about his quick 3s that energizes the team, whereas if Durant goes for ISO shot after shot, it just gets them in a rut - a loop is a really good term for it. Curry is more within the flow and identity of who they are, as the spot up 3s are peppered with amazing ball movement for 3s from passes, speed things up. Sometimes KD's shots interrupt that flow, slow things down.

Today they're at 12 TO's - also uncharacteristic, and indicative of a lapse on D but also line-up changes. Also, before Curry's last two 3s, the Dubs were 4-14 from the 3. So the uncharacteristic play on both ends.

Sure enough as I type, GSW on a big run. Curry is the O cog, Dray the hinge between the O and D, Iggy the D cog.
