The best thing about this series as a Warrior fan is that Steph can either guard postion for the first time in the Finals. He's a better defender and neither postion is great offensively.

Kwahi neutralizes KD?
Conversely, Steph is food for Kawhi, Siakam, Lowry, and even Powell off the dribble, and they're going to seek him out on the PnR like Houston did, since Steph is very foul-prone. So it'll come down to how GSW adjusts with the help or if they'll just run the risk of Steph averaging 5 fouls again like in the WCSFs.
Anyway you slice it, it's coming down to which team has the better bball IQ and who wins all the 50/50 balls from all the resulting switches.
KD averages about 28 ppg on 48% from the field against Kawhi for their careers.
fukk no. Kawhi maybe, but those other dudes...no. Ever since Steph became the primary offensive player he stopped fouling as much. Siakim is not a great ballhandler and will get that shyt poked, Lowry, and Powell comes off the bench so . The PnR didn't hurt Steph against Houston. He actually played excellent defense in most of those situations. He just kept reaching when he shouldn't have which got him in foul trouble. And none of those players draw fouls like Harden or CP3 so we're good.
The REAL test is whose offense can maintain when their superstar goes to the bench. That's the ONLY advantage I give Toronto.
I'm talking about when they play each other. Not guard each other.No he doesn't. You're saying that like he averages 28 ppg when exclusively guarded by Kawhi which that isnt the case and you know it
