My answer is none by a narrow margin.

Hard to answer given all of Cp3’s untimely playoff injuries. In a vacuum 08, 09, 13-17. If I come down hard on playoff injuries probably 08, 13-15, 17.

At full health, 08, 09, 13-17.

Even weaker years like 11 and 12 might be in play.

Though it's possible the right choice is none if you consider things in a simulation and expect a high probability CP3 will get hurt, damaging his championship odds. Won't blame people for saying none.

absolutely zero. never was chris paul capable of doing what stephen curry did this post-season. he may have had some regular seasons with better looking advanced statistics and mathematical sabermetrics, but that means absolutely nothing. one guy has proven himself capable of being a #1 option on a title winner, torching the best defenses in the league with pedestrian supporting offensive help, and the other guy (as good as paul is) has never been capable of this.

You must have a really high opinion of Paul wow. Is he top 15 for you or are you just very low on Curry?

I'm very high on Chris Paul *when healthy. Assuming CP3 had durability of the average top 20 ATG, he might be just inside my top 10. However, due to the untimely injuries and uncertainty on how to weigh the likelihood of these things, I have him outside the top 15 (but firmly in the top 20). I have Steph top 15.

I don't think I would take any but maybe he was on his level in the 2014 - 2016 stretch when healthy(I think the improved defense is worth the worse offense compared to his NO days)

There are a couple seasons where CP3 was arguably a better player than Curry this year (most noticeably 2008 and 2015) but he never had a season as good as 2022 Curry.

none but its not a knock to CP3, he is not a deadly scorer like Steph and this is what Warriors needed most. Steph had a 31 ppg on 63%TS finals series and we needed every bit of that to beat boston. Peak CP3 would mean a lot of changes to current warriors team to make it work.

In what way was CP3 better than Curry in 2015?
