Curry will get you regular season success, when his team is facing mediocre teams struggling to get 90 points. But against a well-balanced team Curry becomes an afterthought.

LeBron left my team. I'm definitely not rooting for him.

That was a gay ass play. He wasn't going for the ball at all.
Very Wade like.

Defensively, how would you rate Steph Curry?

That's Mike Breen for you. And he just happens to be the Knicks announcer with Clyde. He is the most non homerish? announcer. He would be going off on the Knicks in this situation but sucks off on whoever the NBA wants him to.

There, at the end of the 3rd, is another example of Curry's overconfidence. He would rather take a 40 foot 3PT shot than look for a better shot.

This is the kind of thing that LeBron doesn't get enough credit for.

It's amusing how the NBA/media dog certain players about defense and yet don't do that for other players. Of course most will side with the media and won't even notice a worse defender.
