The most underrated part of Steph’s game is his stamina and endurance. He has the lungs of a professional cross country runner. And that’s what makes him such a threat off ball even well into his 30s. So many players talk about how drained they are after having to run around the court guarding him off ball.

"Would Draymond be as good on another team" can easily be answered by watching him in international play. In Tokyo for example, KD was the obvious scoring leader, but Draymond was doing everything else like he always does. Elite NBA players on the team were on the bench so that USA could have Draymond's defense, passing, picks, intensity, etc.

I noticed in the Olympics if Team USA was having problems and started losing in games. Coach Pop would put Draymond in to stabilize and change the momentum of the team. He knew that Draymond would make the right and simple plays. International rules basketball is so different than NBA basketball but Draymond had the confidence and respect of his team mates. The three best players for Team USA were Durant, Jrue Holiday and Draymond in a team that included Booker, Tatum and Lillard. It's not that these players were not good but the older guys were more experienced and could adapt their game better to international rules.

RJ is right. Where the Warriors truly changed basketball is by proving teams could win championships with a small ball 5. Dray was/is savvy enough to guard bigger players, and Steph & Klay would torch teams that rolled out multiple big men on switches. That versatility made them a dynasty. Obviously Steph is the catalyst of it all, arguably a top 5 player of all time but Draymonds versatility also made them nearly unbeatable.

Older.. wiser.. but more importantly, STRONGER.. he's yolk'd now and has the wind of an Ethiopian long distance runner.. His game will age like fine wine (Klay's too) as he can just sit in the corner and provide spacing for the Poole/Kuminga PnR in the future..

7:29 I feel the same way bout ky, that says a lot about how good steph is at PG. To JJ’s last point that’s y they have 4 rings, individually would thrive but grew and still r together.

They played like the Bad Boy Pistons, Zeke, Joe and Vinny were interchangeable at the 1 and 2 spot. The difference is that Steph was really benevolent in sharing the ball. Even if you wanna call him a 2 guard the guard wants to have the ball in his hands and Steph was willing to come off the ball for people to get touches. That's a real General. Richard always tryna find ways to diminish Steph with back handed compliments. Even tho it's Larry Bird folks always find ways to say LeBron is the Best Small Forward ever but don't mention he scores primarily at the rim, he doesn't space the floor and is a horrible free throw shooter to be at the wing position but no one ever calls him a undersized Center or Power Forward. They always try to find passive aggressive ways to hate Steph, especially anyone who played on that Cavs team, weather its Bron making Steph and Klay tombstones to step over at his party, weather that's Richard Tristan or Kendrick hating on him on NBA networks. The only Cav who didn't hate on Steph was Tye Lue who came out and said they still Doubled Steph even with KD on the Floor and even KD finds ways to shade Steph on social media, he got mad about that

Im not a big fan of GSW and this era of basketball but i remember just telling to a friend that the warriors were something we never saw 1 or 2 years before steve kerr arrived... They were spectacular back then

2:07 Very endearing use of that phrase.

I saw it coming in 2013. All they needed was a healthy Bogut the whole time. They would've had more championships. It's only a hypothetical now.

People hold up LeBron and Giannis as examples of dominance these days, but Stephen Curry is in that category as well. I AM NOT putting Stephen over LeBron and Giannis, but since he debuted in the league, he dominates the league, not physically like Giannis and LeBron, but talent.

I think Steph now would be good on any team but Steph when he came in the league idk he clearly had the stuff there to be good but I really believe every top player has the potential to be great and it's coaches and orginizations that see it and know what to foster to get them there. Like Steph and Steve Kerr were perfect for each other like Tim Duncan and Pop were and it took the absolute confidence Kerr had in Steph to get him the opportunity he excelled at. So idk if Steph would be the same player if he went to a team coached by say Larry Brown who hated 3s and just didn't use them.

To put in perspective, Rudy Fernandez held the record for most threes in a season as a rookie until Curry came out.

RJ is dead wrong on Steph being a shooting guard. What makes Steph so lethal is that as soon as he crosses half court with the ball, he's a threat to pull the trigger. This stretches the defense out and helps other players get open. He is also the best off the dribble shooter ever, so you wouldn't see that as much if he was a shooting guard.

So if that's your arguement, could I say 2008 Celtics was also a jump shooting team because the big three KG, PP and Ray are all good at shooting the ball? I don't think that alone makes them a jump shooting team, right?

He didn't save the day, they lost Game 3 but what he did show Dray during that loss was the way to attack the Cavs PnR coverage was to make quick decisions on the short roll to press the 4 on 3 advantage. Worked perfectly in Game 4 along with the lineup change and the rest is history.

You have to throw in Harden and Rockets. I think more teams use their model than the Warriors. They changed the game just as much imo

I remember the playoffs when Curry and Thompson developed audacious shot making, and thinking, watch out NBA. They completely revolutionized efficiency by 3 pts, and what's great is nobody else who replicate that are as good. They stormed in the era of outside shooting and left Charles Barkeley forever in denial (no chips)

Klay is a shooter, one of the best ever. But he cant create his own shot, he isnt a very good passer or ball handler. Steph was to the warriors what Jordan was to the Bulls what Giannis is to the bucks, now if you take Pippen or Drue Holiday off those teams and replace them with other guys you wont win as many rings or be as good, but Without jordan or steph or Giannis, those teams dont go anywhere.

this. RJ stands on this hill of “steph isn’t a PG” and CLEARLY can’t understand the difference between a primary and secondary ball handler. is kyrie not a pg bc he let lebron/luka operate on the ball? is murray not a pg bc he lets the offense run through jokic? of course not. the pg’s #1 job is to do what’s best for the team - and id argue that NO ONE understands that better than steph.
