I get what you are saying. I'm sure you can approach that theory to any other team with a prolific scorer or shooter, but the Warriors team is catered to steph's strength. Everybody on that team can shoot and shoot beyond the arc and can pass well. I think the team will hurt you just as much as steph by himself. The Warriors are a very well built team.

The whole gist of it is to try and make them drive as much as possible. Force steph right, stay home under all circumstances, and hope that that kind of defense takes out the 3 point line enough to compete against them. 

One of the issues with playing the warriors is that the opponents have to have like discipline that's out of this world, especially inside of the oracle. Along with being able to flat out compete with player personnel.

Wardell better than kd and ive been saying that since last year. Kd just taller. He does literally nothing else better.
 
IMHO I don't think KD vs Steph is even a debate

Not only is Steph the best shooter, he's arguably the best passer with the best handles and best scorer
 
KD just got the rub for being tall as hell and a Nike sig athlete.
Dude is frail and has the emotions of a 12 year old girl
 
It's easy to stop curry just keep both arms extended with your palms over his eyes so he can't see the basket
 
Dudes bit my head off when i said it last year. Called me a prisoner of the moment and yadi yadi. Now its not even a debate. Im so cleo
 
KD ain't even the best player on his team and I legitimately believe Russ is better. I'm not saying I forgot about his MVP season because KD went off that season, but his foot really shook **** up.

It's crazy because last summer (2014) we all would say KD was the player who was easily the best offensive player in the world..is the gap between Steph and KD that big now? Based on the past year and this season so far it looks like it

Steph is the better offensive player because Durant doesn't compare as a passer and ball handler. As much as Durant is a matchup nightmare because of his height and shooting ability, Steph is even more so because of the triple-threat. At this point we have to consider them equals in terms of shooting, and Steph is better at the other two categories.
 
Can't even consider them as equals anymore shooting wise when it's arguable Steph is the GOAT shooter period. That's the craziest thing

I should have said as scorers, not shooters.

Kevin Durant can be just as good of a playmaker as steph. We saw it in 2014 when Russ was out. He's also the better and more versatile scorer, as well as defender.
