I've said this time and time again when it comes to Steph v. every other player:
Nobody in the history of the game is defended like him, so you can't take any instance of where he's been stifled and use it in relation to another player, because no other player has had to deal with that defensive attention. If you review Game 3 of this season's Finals, Jimmy was defended 1v1 throughout the entirety of the game, and he was allowed to touch the ball, unimpeded, basically whenever he wanted - the Lakers were pretty much living with him as a scorer. Now, you compare that to Steph in playoff series' where defenses lose their cotdamn minds at his sheer presence; he doesn't even need to have the ball in his hands to where he has multiple defenders around him.
Can you imagine the destruction that Steph would inflict if teams didn't defend him like they do and were just willing to let him do whatever he wanted?
Steph and Kerr have had to gameplan and execute under more difficult circumstances to generate points than your regular team does. This ultimately is reflective of the limitations of the support cast over the last half a decade, which haven't been necessarily bad, it's just that they've been average.
