I'm saying he didn't win the series by himself. He stole a game yes. But you let Curry go for 60 but don't let KT get his 20 also.
I don't think GSW will be as good, people saw SA defend them and will copy it. Harrison Barnes better be big for them or they're done.

well thats how it is for everyone no? i mean you cant expect ONE player to win an entire series. kobe cant do it, duncan cant do it, lebron cant do it, MJ couldnt do it, bird couldnt do it, magic couldnt do it. but im a strong believer in the best way to beat a team is taking their best player out of the equation and you make the rest of the team step up

OR let their best player run wild and take away his supporting cast.

I don't think Curry is their best overall player.
The Celtics let MJ go for 50 plus but the rest of team didn't do anything.

he is clearly their best offensive option

Thompson is way more versatile than Curry.
Thompson plays 3 positions

Worked just fine for the Spurs in the past

If the Warriors had found a way to beat the Spurs, the Grizzlies probably would have been in the finals
They had no inside game that could stop Zbo and Marc. I think defensively Conley and Tony Allen would have kept Steph Curry and Klay Thompson in check.
Harrison Barnes is really gonna have to step up for them this year or I think losing Landry and Jack will hurt them.

The late 80's early 90's?
They had Pippen Paxson BJ Cartwright Grant
The year that MJ went for 60 in playoffs Collins moved MJ to point and wore him out.
The Bulls were smart trading Cartwright for Oakley but if Grant and Carr don't work out it was a dumb trade.

Exactly what the Grizzlies did this year against OKC in the playoffs. With Westbrook out with the injury they decided to shut down KD and let the rest of the team beat them.

those bull teams had the pieces in the late 80s, but were far from being truly competitive until the 90s. those 80s teams had absolutely no scoring outside of jordan

That's why you let Curry go off. You risk mismatch chasing him and switching screens with him.
Thompson and Barnes will eat you alive. Then when you start going over its Bogut and Lee.

its also the way the lakers played defense on their championship teams of the 2000s

The key to the Bulls teams was Grant. If he started strong it was over. Phil would go to him and Cartwright no matter what in first 4 possessions.
