No, just no. You hate Curry, and I have no idea why

2010: Curry was a rookie
2011: GSW was still bad as Don Nelson left - Sportsman of the year
2012: GSW was still awful - third coach in three years
2013: Klay and Green were rookies, still went to the WCSF - losing to SA in a close six games.
2014: Lost to Clips in seven, which is what got Mark Jackson fired
2015 : Curry wins MVP and championship. Curry carries Warriors to key Game four win in NBA Finals. GSW had injury lucked, but they have more than paid for it.
2016: Curry battles through injuries and Draymond was a moron in Game Four. Suspension doesn't happen = over in five
2020: Curry broke his hand and was out three months - GSW decided to tank
2021: Curry tried to carry a bunch of bums - Klay was still injured
2022: GSW is finally healthy for the first time since 2018 - Curry carries team to championship. Against Memphis, GSW took two out of three with Ja, and two out of three without Ja. Murray was injured, sure, but that series ended in five. Doubt Murray was worth three wins. Curry was coming off injury and still COOKED Joker
2023: Bad loss to Fakers, but Curry still dropped 50 in a game seven ON THE ROAD.
2024: GSW would have lost 69 games without Steph
2025: Steph Curry was injured in Game One against Minny - they win that series EASILY with a healthy Steph. Furthermore, GSW had success against OKC historically.
2026: Jimmy was injured, Moody was injured, Steph was injured

Lmfao that you actually typed this nonsense.

People trash curry mostly because of how much you fawn over him. You created an entire thread for him on the Paddock while everyone just laughed at how wrong you were constantly. Dont pretend its just me who thinks Curry is overrated.

Sounds like the Houston fan in you talking, lol.

It is, and im not afraid to admit it lol.

But it is frustrating. Houston was the worst team over a 3 year span, and we never once got the #1 pick which could have been Cade, Chet, and Wemby.. and instead we get Jalen Green (gone), Jabari Smith (a 3rd option type of player) and Amen (jury out, struggles offensively).

Success really comes down to lottery odds.. er, who stern/silver want to deliver the #1 pick to.

Get the #1 pick in the most consequential draft in two decades and then follow it up with the #2 and #4. Yeah a lot of teams would be good with that kind of luck.

It felt like the Spurs were shadow tanking the whole time and the NBA was slobbering over scum Popovich.

Yeah this was always the downside to Reed. Just not an NBA body or athleticism. Gets torched on defense, can get bullied by bigger guards and if his shot isnt falling than he really cant be on the floor.

Honestly he probably returns to college if not for that being one of the worst draft classes ever. But he knew he couldn't turn down top5 pick money.

It's a fair point. But KD isn't considered the GOAT by a select few goobers, or a top5, top10 or top15 player, or the best player at his position. Curry has had all those things said about him.

He's definitely over-hyped. I rarely watched them play because I loathe Green and Kerr.

Nuggets my favorite team. Ugly injury for Ant Man and also DeVincinzo wheeled out of the arena. Wow.
