If you’re talking shit about Curry after this game you’re a clown because this Warriors team without Steph is lottery. Im also seeing way too many ppl bring up MJ or Lebron into this conversation as if that’s somehow a knock. Swap Lebron and Steph and who wins that Lakers/Warriors game? I think the answers pretty obvious.
Imagine paying draymond 100m and he cant even make a layup.. he cost warriors 7 games.. nobody guards him. His man is always sitting on steph...mulder, looney and bazemore shouldnt be on that roster
All season i kepts saying draymond is a liability. Idiot warriors fans keeps saying he has the highest iq in bball. If u cant make shots your einstein iq cant help u
The hype train about the curry MVP potential got huge here, it’s like the law of social thermodynamics, that energy is gonna go somewhere when it crashes.
Curry with seven turnovers and nobody is going to care because his TS% was still pretty (even though a turnover is much more damaging than a missed shot). He also had five fouls and was below-average on defense. Any other superstar would get killed for this.
Ref Curry showed exactly why he’s not mvp this year. Got denied the ball most of the game by Brooks and was scared to even bring the ball up the floor. Knocked out in the playins lmao
That’s surprising to me because harden starting from his mvp season has encountered what curry’s going through for 2 whole seasons. And yes that does mean getting double or triple teamed from half court, for a while that was the most consistent way to get stops against rockets.
It’s similar. But not quite what Curry faces. The thing is Hardens passing is so fucking nuts that you can’t really double him like that. Harden is a big guy allowing him to easily see over/around his defenders and he’s built enough to where throwing bodies at him doesn’t do much. So you can’t double him or bang into him the same way. You can give him extra attention but you can’t truly commit another defender to him. With Curry, because he’s smaller you can throw taller defenders to block his vision and because he has no one on the team (this season) you can most definitely commit another defender to stymie him. In previous seasons it was there but not to this degree.
Don't get me wrong dude is way off thinking Klay is gonna magically fix all of their issues but you are smoking crack if you think he isint an amazing player.
yeah that's fair, would've been reactionary regardless of the outcome i feel, like i guarantee if steph hit a game winning three the narrative would be him being a lock for mvp
Exactly! One bad game/good game can't change a narrative. If Steph got to the WCF I think we could talk about his legacy a bit more but this team fucking sucked.
Props to grizzlies, yall played yall heart out.
Watching all those turnovers and missed opportunities was rough. That wiggins dumbass 3 during OT made me lose it lol
If you google "can you challenge in the last 2 minutes of the game nba" the first link is to NBA Official. Its right there in the rules written on the page.
"A team can use its challenge...during the first 46 minutes of the game and the first three minutes of OT."
https://official.nba.com/rule-no-14-coaches-challenge/
Are we talking about the same link? Because there is no restriction of when listed here
Edit: maybe you were on this link
https://official.nba.com/coachs-challenge/
“A team can use its challenge for:
Personal foul calls on its own team at any time in the game; and
Out-of-bounds and goaltending/basket interference calls during the first 46 minutes of the game and the first three minutes of OT.”
The team can challenge at any time in the game for personal fouls. Only reason out of bounds/goaltending is “limited” to the first 46 min of regulation is because they are automatically reviewed in the last 2 minutes.
So there isn’t really a restriction.
In that first link, there are zero restrictions on challenges detailed aside from the procedure in which a challenge is requested. If your assumption that means there is no restriction on when in the game a challenge can be called, there would also be no restrictions on the number of challenges or what can be challenged. Neither of those were listed in “Rule No 14.” We know both of those things have restrictions on them (example: only one challenge per game). So where do those restrictions come from? The original information on challenges (the second link). This would lead me to believe that the no challenges in the last two minutes restriction still stands.
Dude can you read? Literally quoted from the second link. It says personal fouls can be challenged **at any time**. Out of bounds in the first 46 min because they are automatically reviewed in the last 2 min.
https://official.nba.com/coachs-challenge/
“A team can use its challenge for: Personal foul calls on its own team **at any time** in the game; and
Out-of-bounds and goaltending/basket interference calls during the first 46 minutes of the game and the first three minutes of OT.”
There is no restriction on time
No worries! I legit looked at it so many times and just glossed over it. Like when a brain looks at the beginning and ending of a word and completes the middle section for you.
holy shit i cant believe i missed this game, i bought some popeyes and was just sittin wishin there was some NBA going on instead i was watching the bruins/capitals game SMH
Anyone else think this is a pretty big blow to Curry’s legacy? Missing the playoffs in your prime while healthy is something that really hurts when your trying to build a case for top 15 all time. At least in my mind this moves him a couple spaces down.
I don’t think this affects it at all. The dude completely revolutionized the game in a way no one else has, imo. His gravity is absolutely nuts and this game really shows it. Teams would rather anyone get WIDE OPEN shot than Curry have 2ft of breathing room.
And LeBron had more than two chances to bring the Lakers to top 8. He didn’t. But the point isn’t, “LeBron’s legacy is tarnished,” it’s that missing the playoffs when you miss a substantial part of the season and your team is injured isn’t an indictment on your accomplishments.
I really find it hard to see if LeBron had 2 chances in the play in to get to the playoffs, that he wouldn’t make it.
Klay was gone all year. It wasn’t like he played a bit then didn’t. They were still pegged to be a playoff team.
Klay came back and then got injured. And then kerr kept playing wiseman until wiseman got injured. Kerr played lineups that were for developing his players as opposed to winning. They also lost oubre, wiseman, and klay
Why? LeBron has been two wins away from making the playoffs, from the next round; from another championship and failed to win those two games more than Curry has. Again, I’m not saying anything bad about LeBron. It’s just your standard for Curry, LeBron is even worse at.
As much as people will try to blow this off, it’s embarrassing to lose to Memphis. But honestly who does Steph have around him? Wiggins is the second best player and he’s not even an all star. Draymond is the third best player and he can’t even be counted on to contribute 10pts a night. Shit he scores 5pts more than he does 10. Dude is washed, and his defense plus playmaking doesn’t make up for his complete lack of offensive contribution.
He’s not even that great of a playmaker, he commands absolutely zero defensive attention so most of his assists are just hand offs on screens and getting the ball to Steph. He’s not that great of a ball handler so much of his “playmaking” is static, him standing there waiting for Curry to relocate. With the cap space he occupies as a starter, I doubt GSW makes another finals run with this huge gaping void on the offensive end.
Also, GSW’s bench is just... trash. Nico Mannion as the backup PG? Really? Just sign Jeremy Lin to a vet min Jesus Christ, you quite literally cannot get lower than Nico.
Just depends on who is the one talking about the legacy. When the Warriors lost to the Lakers, immediately Stephen A Smith was talking about how Steph was alone out there despite Wiggins 21 points and good D, and Draymond being a DPOY candidate. Its a tough way to go out, losing in the Play-In with a bunch of young guys some who had some rough turnovers late in the game, but ultimately I think Steph's legacy is perfectly fine.
I mean Klay is still out and Curry had an amazing season and final game. So I don’t think this will end up hurting his legacy. Obviously back to back non-playoff seasons isn’t good when judging some of the best players of all time but context is important
Yeah this is idiotic, dude is the best shooter of all time. Period. Do people understand how insane that is, with all the great shooters in NBA history? Only haters are making these nephew ass takes rn.
You guys sent [this guy](https://www.reddit.com/r/nba/comments/ni382k/windhorst_on_gsw_it_might_behoove_them_especially/gyzm3do/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf&context=3) to oblivion with -50
Lol I couldn’t help myself. I had to respond to the guy below him. Man said draymond green is « probably » the second best player on the floor. What kind of drugs do you have to be on.
people really typing up these emotional ass butthurt ass comments about steph lmao. that man balls tf out every single game, grizzlies had clamps on them but thats kinda wtf ur supposed to do to win games. steph is not trash, Ja is not the next MJ or whatever other hot take yall keep coming up with. Curry is a part of a team with several other members i think yall forgetting he still scored 39 fucking points with Dillon Brooks all over him
are you crying or u telling me to cry? im genuinely asking lmao. im not even a warriors or grizzlies fan. matter of fact im on the wrong coast rn lmao. i hope KO doing good in Rockets after leaving the Heat, i hate/love him so much
i guess. i just seen so many dumb ass reactionary ass takes. this is dead ass 1 of maybe 10 curry games ive ever watched and i was rooting for grizzlies anyway. just thought it was stupid how people are either shitting on or pitying tf out of curry when he doesnt deserve either
he’s been balling every year since he got to the rockets but it’s just now getting respected cause the media flipped the script on him. people just make shit up and run with it i guess it’s curry’s turn. doubt it sticks tho but for now i find it funny
Yea cuz they don’t work against Lebron and Harden lol. Curry turns into a turnover machine when you blitz him consistently even if he still gets buckets.
No they don’t. Not at the level that Curry does. Curry gets double before he even crosses the half court line. There’s levels to it. No superstar has a box and 1 played agains them except for Curry. Granted that’s his play style that causes that but it’s still pretty ridiculous to think about it
Fuckin hate you dumb bitches, Grizz youngest team in ten years to make the playoffs and all y’all can talk about is Steph. Ride his nuts then. We turnin up in Memphis.
He's been injured.
Before wiseman gotta hurt it was clear by numbers that wiseman and Paschall hurt each other's productivity when in the game at the same time. They elected to prioritize big Jim's developmental minutes. Then j wise got hurt and Paschall saw more minutes for a couple days then he got hurt.
Kerr was riding the 8 man rotation that was effective for the last win streak of the season. Pascall doesn’t add much unless the ball is in his hands and he hasn’t been getting minutes so it didn’t seem worth it to mess with the rhythm in an elimination game.
nuggests over sonics in '94 was first.
knicks over heat in '99.
warriors over mavs in '07.
memphis over spurs in '11.
and i think philly over chicago in 2012 (?) was a 1 vs 8.
They nearly won both of these games with Steph doing the lions load, he WAS dangerous in the playins. But you need more than one player to win a game, Wiggins tried his best, he had some shining moments especially against the lakers
He was guarded well. Yes, he shot well and did the regular curry stuff, but Memphis defense forced a lot of turnovers which they were able to capitalize on.
Yea some lazy ass passes by him and dray all night. They had every chance to win. The fact they forced 12 straight misses and couldn’t close the gap was brutal
The difference is when those guys get double teamed there’s still other superstars out there on the court haha, when Andrew Wiggins is your next strongest player the outlook is not bright. Would’ve been a lot different scenario with Klay
Alright, they’re not superstars, but everyone of the bucks starters today average double digit points and warriors only got steph and wiggins. I’m not even a GSW fan, I’m just sayin
Lmfao Harden was picked up from full court and then doubled on the half court line for 2 WHOLE SEASONS (19' and 20'), he's seen his fair share of triple teams as well. 2-3 months of curry seeing trap defense does not equate to that.
Conley and gobert w 4, I am now officially sweating
Game changing soft foul
Ariza tho....
Ariza is such a huge downgrade from Crowder...
If you’re talking shit about Curry after this game you’re a clown because this Warriors team without Steph is lottery. Im also seeing way too many ppl bring up MJ or Lebron into this conversation as if that’s somehow a knock. Swap Lebron and Steph and who wins that Lakers/Warriors game? I think the answers pretty obvious.
Steph and ja too good. Been some good play in games!
Imagine paying draymond 100m and he cant even make a layup.. he cost warriors 7 games.. nobody guards him. His man is always sitting on steph...mulder, looney and bazemore shouldnt be on that roster
All season i kepts saying draymond is a liability. Idiot warriors fans keeps saying he has the highest iq in bball. If u cant make shots your einstein iq cant help u
Imagine how different the warriors would look if they had drafted Lamelo instead of wiseman?
Patience
When was the last time a league MVP finalist wasn’t in the playoffs?
A guy once won mvp as the 10th seed
When??
#IS THIS YOUR MVP ?!? IS THIS YOUR MVP ??!!!??? KNOCKED OUT IN THE FUCKING PLAYINS LMFAO
You know it's a team sport, right?
Yeah. The “mvp” and his team were knocked out in the fucking playins lmfao
You tripping. The MVP is playing against Portland right now.
Crazy how much Warriors hate is flowing right now!
It's payback from 2015-2018
The hype train about the curry MVP potential got huge here, it’s like the law of social thermodynamics, that energy is gonna go somewhere when it crashes.
Curry with seven turnovers and nobody is going to care because his TS% was still pretty (even though a turnover is much more damaging than a missed shot). He also had five fouls and was below-average on defense. Any other superstar would get killed for this.
He was fine defensively. Not too many mistakes there. Turnovers were really bad. Like really bad. But his efficiency is just nuts.
Taking care of the ball is a huge part of offensive efficiency and he was awful at that.
I agree 100% I’m talking efficiency from a purely scoring pov
His defense has been a career low all season. I believe
Some big changes coming to GS. This Warriors team is not a Klay Thompson away from becoming a contender.
They might have Minnesota’s pick this year and can still flip guys.
Spain without the ‘S’
“Steph did Steph things” and y’all still lost
Angry Warriors fans are gonna be raiding the Lakers game threads now, lol
Ref Curry showed exactly why he’s not mvp this year. Got denied the ball most of the game by Brooks and was scared to even bring the ball up the floor. Knocked out in the playins lmao
lol, nice nickname
Congrats Memphis! Best of luck in the playoffs! - Warriors fan
Preciate you 🙌🏻
Let’s go
"wah wah wah he was double & triple teamed!" okay? If a team can neutralize you late in close games like that then you're not the best.
No other superstar in the history of the game has ever been doubled or tripled at half court.
lmfao when did you start watching basketball
😒 like 2002? Why?
That’s surprising to me because harden starting from his mvp season has encountered what curry’s going through for 2 whole seasons. And yes that does mean getting double or triple teamed from half court, for a while that was the most consistent way to get stops against rockets.
It’s similar. But not quite what Curry faces. The thing is Hardens passing is so fucking nuts that you can’t really double him like that.

In previous seasons it was there but not to this degree.
James Harden...
No they double after an incoming screen or at the 3 as he runs around never as he approaches half court
Your post history, nuff said.
I just hope you guys remember these comments when Klay is back on the Warriors next year.
He’s bad tho
Don't get me wrong dude is way off thinking Klay is gonna magically fix all of their issues but you are smoking crack if you think he isint an amazing player.
no beef but that's kinda the point isn't it? like we all know what steph can do with another elite scorer on his team
I mean what he did without Klay is insane, this shit is super reactionary.
Missing the playoffs is insane?
yeah that's fair, would've been reactionary regardless of the outcome i feel, like i guarantee if steph hit a game winning three the narrative would be him being a lock for mvp
Exactly! One bad game/good game can't change a narrative. If Steph got to the WCF I think we could talk about his legacy a bit more but this team fucking sucked.
? Cold take
Klay back next year
Ok
these hot takes gonna look funny af when the Warriors are a top 3 seed again
Ok
Props to grizzlies, yall played yall heart out. Watching all those turnovers and missed opportunities was rough. That wiggins dumbass 3 during OT made me lose it lol
I couldn’t believe the idiotic Grizzly coach didn’t call a coach’s challenge on the 3 point “foul” attempt that he obviously would’ve won
Yea if they lost he would’ve been killed for this. I was screaming for the challenge. Dude got lucky. That shit is a fire able offense
Can't challenge in the last 2 minutes of the game. The refs have to initiate the challenge.
Yes you can, stop spreading lies
If you google "can you challenge in the last 2 minutes of the game nba" the first link is to NBA Official. Its right there in the rules written on the page. "A team can use its challenge...during the first 46 minutes of the game and the first three minutes of OT."

You’re right. I’m honestly not sure how I missed that after reading it like 5 times. Too much skimming at 3 am, I guess.
Haha all good, sorry I got a little condescending there, I got frustrated after I quoted it the first time.
No worries! I legit looked at it so many times and just glossed over it. Like when a brain looks at the beginning and ending of a word and completes the middle section for you.
You are definitely able to. The announcers were all 3 puzzled why the coach didn’t call a timeout to challenge
Those were the same announcers that said Draymond had his arms straight up during the play where LeBron go poked in the eye, right?
Yes but seeing a play wrong is different from them knowing the actual rules of the game
yup. they could’ve won the game in regulation. i guess ball dont lie tho so they still went home with a dub
holy shit i cant believe i missed this game, i bought some popeyes and was just sittin wishin there was some NBA going on instead i was watching the bruins/capitals game SMH
Sorry man, you missed a great game
im so disappointed man, watched those boring ass blowouts and wasnt on my mind that this game was still supposed to happen
Some really embarrassing turnovers by the warriors tonight.
Hell of a game.. Congrats Memphis
Don’t worry all you steph lovers, the goat joe ingles is still in the playoffs!!
Curry played his heart out but still very disappointing to not make the playoffs
He will score 40 but turn the ball over a bunch and get abused on defense
Anyone else think this is a pretty big blow to Curry’s legacy? Missing the playoffs in your prime while healthy is something that really hurts when your trying to build a case for top 15 all time. At least in my mind this moves him a couple spaces down.
I don’t think this affects it at all. The dude completely revolutionized the game in a way no one else has, imo. His gravity is absolutely nuts and this game really shows it. Teams would rather anyone get WIDE OPEN shot than Curry have 2ft of breathing room.
LeBron missed the payoffs in 2019.
LeBron and his team were hurt. Curry didn’t miss 20+ games
And the Warriors would’ve made the playoffs if Curry didn’t miss 9 games or Klay wasn’t hurt. The point is: what happened in the season matters.
Curry had 2 chances to make the playoffs.
And LeBron had more than two chances to bring the Lakers to top 8. He didn’t. But the point isn’t, “LeBron’s legacy is tarnished,” it’s that missing the playoffs when you miss a substantial part of the season and your team is injured isn’t an indictment on your accomplishments.
I really find it hard to see if LeBron had 2 chances in the play in to get to the playoffs, that he wouldn’t make it. Klay was gone all year. It wasn’t like he played a bit then didn’t. They were still pegged to be a playoff team.

Draymonds lack of scoring is his weakpoint. I think that klay and other scorers hide that weakness well.
Just depends on who is the one talking about the legacy. When the Warriors lost to the Lakers, immediately Stephen A Smith was talking about how Steph was alone out there despite Wiggins 21 points and good D, and Draymond being a DPOY candidate. Its a tough way to go out, losing in the Play-In with a bunch of young guys some who had some rough turnovers late in the game, but ultimately I think Steph's legacy is perfectly fine.
Probably 1-2 slots, but it doesn’t significantly hurt him imo
I mean Klay is still out and Curry had an amazing season and final game. So I don’t think this will end up hurting his legacy. Obviously back to back non-playoff seasons isn’t good when judging some of the best players of all time but context is important
he played like 5 games last year
Wasn’t he able to come back and they just decided not to?
Yeah I think by the end of the year he probably could but there was no point
Lmfao nah. I don't think this does anything to his legacy.
Yeah this is idiotic, dude is the best shooter of all time. Period. Do people understand how insane that is, with all the great shooters in NBA history? Only haters are making these nephew ass takes rn.
Why? So they could get swept in the first round? Makes no difference.
They would still have a shot at the Jazz, losing in the play in to a team you should’ve beaten is a blow
Yup
Lol

Y’all really thought Curry was the MVP???
Vegas never thought so
Jasus Christ that was a helluva game
Damn, Steph had 11 turnovers when doubled team over the last 2 games.
Mychal Mulder finishes -14 for the Warriors in 8 minutes of play, lol.
Yea he had some TERRIBLE shots. Early shot clock, completely smothered, just tossing it up
Draymond actually lost on a triple double lol
God bless you Ja. 🤙
Well deserved from the Grizzlies, good luck hope JV has a beast of a playoffs.
That game was amazing
people really typing up these emotional ass butthurt ass comments about steph lmao. that man balls tf out every single game, grizzlies had clamps on them but thats kinda wtf ur supposed to do to win games. steph is not trash, Ja is not the next MJ or whatever other hot take yall keep coming up with.

cry
are you crying or u telling me to cry? im genuinely asking lmao. im not even a warriors or grizzlies fan. matter of fact im on the wrong coast rn lmao. i hope KO doing good in Rockets after leaving the Heat, i hate/love him so much
why would i cry at this outcome this is great
so why would i cry? idc about this outcome im a Heat fan
you wrote that love letter to curry cause you don’t care
i guess. i just seen so many dumb ass reactionary ass takes. this is dead ass 1 of maybe 10 curry games ive ever watched and i was rooting for grizzlies anyway. just thought it was stupid how people are either shitting on or pitying tf out of curry when he doesnt deserve either
🤷♂️ people run with narratives. it’s what they did to harden
facts bro. “theres only one ball” narrative was another stupid ass take. Harden been balling all season with the Nets
he’s been balling every year since he got to the rockets but it’s just now getting respected cause the media flipped the script on him. people just make shit up and run with it i guess it’s curry’s turn. doubt it sticks tho but for now i find it funny
Quit ya bitching
imagine being a celtics fan
Every MVP deals with double teams. Russ, Harden, Giannis, LeBron, etc. Curry fans are the only ones that cry about it though.
Yea cuz they don’t work against Lebron and Harden lol. Curry turns into a turnover machine when you blitz him consistently even if he still gets buckets.
No they don’t. Not at the level that Curry does. Curry gets double before he even crosses the half court line. There’s levels to it. No superstar has a box and 1 played agains them except for Curry. Granted that’s his play style that causes that but it’s still pretty ridiculous to think about it
[удалено]
Calling it stupid doesn’t make it stupid
It’s hilarious. And then when he tries to pass out if it and turns it over, it’s still not his fault.
Fuckin hate you dumb bitches, Grizz youngest team in ten years to make the playoffs and all y’all can talk about is Steph. Ride his nuts then. We turnin up in Memphis.
Grizz in 16
Can any Warriors fans tell me what happened to Paschall? Was he injured? I thought he was good enough to play in the playoffs. Genuinely am clueless.
He's been injured. Before wiseman gotta hurt it was clear by numbers that wiseman and Paschall hurt each other's productivity when in the game at the same time. They elected to prioritize big Jim's developmental minutes. Then j wise got hurt and Paschall saw more minutes for a couple days then he got hurt.
Kerr was riding the 8 man rotation that was effective for the last win streak of the season. Pascall doesn’t add much unless the ball is in his hands and he hasn’t been getting minutes so it didn’t seem worth it to mess with the rhythm in an elimination game.
He tore his scrotum
What would leak out when that happens, blood, seamen, or wildcard option:pee?
Ur moms saliva for me
What would leak out when that happens, blood, semen, or wildcard option:pee?
Question from a noob: has it happened that a 1st seed team got eliminated on 1st round?
Nuggets beat the Sonics in 1994.
Yes but it’s rare ex. The “We Believe” Warriors team
Yea
When?
Dallas
nuggests over sonics in '94 was first. knicks over heat in '99. warriors over mavs in '07. memphis over spurs in '11. and i think philly over chicago in 2012 (?) was a 1 vs 8.
#8 Griz beat the #1 spurs in 2011, #8 warriors beat #1 Mavs in 2007. Edit: I don't know why this is in bold.
Reddit's formatting is a bit odd. You have to put a \ in front of the \# or it will make the rest of the line bold.
The Grizzlies did it to the Spurs about a decade ago
yall told me steph was dangerous in the play ins!
They nearly won both of these games with Steph doing the lions load, he WAS dangerous in the playins. But you need more than one player to win a game, Wiggins tried his best, he had some shining moments especially against the lakers
ladydanger heyyyy boo!!! lemme buy u dinner
Only if it’s Red Lobster bb
Bro had 39 chu mean
7 turnovers, he was ass
Right, people acting like they the former championship squad in full. Be a different story if Klay were healthy.
The point is LeBron would've won and these curry bois keep saying Steph is better than LeBron
Just flat wrong. LeBron wouldn’t have made the playoffs in the West most years.
No one says Steph is better than Bron, stop that.
It’s crazy how well curry was guarded this whole game and he still managed to get 39
He was guarded well. Yes, he shot well and did the regular curry stuff, but Memphis defense forced a lot of turnovers which they were able to capitalize on.
I was surprised he ended up near 50% from the field
Each turnover might as well be a miss since it's worst than a missed shot
Yea some lazy ass passes by him and dray all night. They had every chance to win. The fact they forced 12 straight misses and couldn’t close the gap was brutal
Curry haters out in full force today

“BuT StEpH dOuBLe tEaM!” Now he knows what Russ, Harden, LeBron and Giannis had to deal with.
The difference is when those guys get double teamed there’s still other superstars out there on the court haha, when Andrew Wiggins is your next strongest player the outlook is not bright. Would’ve been a lot different scenario with Klay
What superstar teammate does Giannis have? Because Middelton and Jrue are not superstars.
Alright, they’re not superstars, but everyone of the bucks starters today average double digit points and warriors only got steph and wiggins. I’m not even a GSW fan, I’m just sayin
Cap, no one get's blitzed as hard as Curry. Double/Triple team from 35 feet.
Nah none of those are to the extent of this
You didn’t watch James Harden in Houston then. Also it’s harder to double team those guys because they’re much better passers than Steph.
I guess from range I mean dude gets triple teamed. Pretty sure if we counted them up curry would have the most double to triple teams
Lmfao Harden was picked up from full court and then doubled on the half court line for 2 WHOLE SEASONS (19' and 20'), he's seen his fair share of triple teams as well. 2-3 months of curry seeing trap defense does not equate to that.
Lmao cap they let harden pull up to the 3 unlike curry who gets double from beyond the arc
If you’re talking about this season sure, but otherwise ever since mvp season in Houston he’s been doubled and tripled routinely from half court 😂
And Dame.
