Wow people still going with the whole "Curry would get exposed without a super team" narrative I see. This is for the guy that

Took the laughingstock that was the GS Warriors to the playoffs multiple times and a 50+ win season with Mark Jackson as his coach. The guy that took 1st year starter Draymond Green and only Klay Thompson as his other all star and Harrison Barnes as one of his starters to a 67 win season in which he won the MVP and GS won the freaking championship that year. Then followed that up with winning a record 73 wins in the regular season, winning the first ever unanimous MVP and going to game 7 of the finals that year.

His resume before KD ever joined and before GS ever had a "super team"

3x all nba (2x 1st team)
2x MVP (first ever unanimous)
Champion
2x Western conference champion
3x all star

Ya that dude needed this year to prove he can carry his own team. Man some of the arguments on this place has gotten so far from actual evidence based and so far to over the top First Take-esque level of narrative based only, its kind of hard to watch.

Is nba going to investigate if Curry is healthy enough to return before season ends?
Can't wait to see the incompetent nba office to fine the warriors for any potential inconsistent public comments in the future

No point in him returning in 3-4 months when the team will be out of playoff contention.

Curry proving what we suspected, that he's soft, fragile, can't be depended on to carry a team by himself...

Still hurts that he's eliminated your rockets 4 of the 5 past seasons.

The fans pay for tickets to SEE YOU PLAY in your new arena, it doesn't matter if you lose. We are fans, and we want to see the stars play. It doesn't matter with tanking cause you'll lose games anyway. Basically throwing away a healthy prime season just cause the title is unattainable, what a waste.

Spurs did the same thing with David Robinson. Worked out well for them.


I don’t believe there are any Tim Duncan’s in the next draft. I can’t say how strong or weak it is but I can’t say that I’ve heard of any “generational talent” coming out of the 2020 draft.

Fair enough but i don't think they need much more. Curry, Klay, Draymond, top pick and whatever you can get for Dlo. Good team

Posters I thought were reasonable coming out saying he's "soft" and "can't carry a team" only because he can't defend himself with his play now that he's hurt. You dumb-dumbs been waiting years for this? He's been keeping your traps shut until now? Pathetic. The GB is truly a septic tank and you all are the turds in it.

Kerr says Curry more impactful than Jordan: 'He puts the fear of God into defenses'


:lol: He completely broke down after 4 games. FOUR GAMES in the regular season. Kobe Bryant carried a trash roster to the playoffs and took the #2 seed Suns to 7 games

if you mean not wanting to expose curry's game, i have to disagree.
i think maybe not exposing him to another injury because he will get brutalized is a probability. he's not that kind of westbrookian player. he's got a glib game and honestly his game and body are soft

It's Ric Bucher so who knows, but looks like Golden State is ready to roll out the tank? They are saying that his hand is worse than they expected.

Curry is more overrated than Harden, and that's saying something.

Curry is out until basically the All-Star break as it is right now. What’s the point of him playing in meaningless March and April games when the Dubs will already be eliminated from playoff contention by them anyway? And why are people pretending to be but butthurt about it? I’m so tired of people railing and failing on tanking.
