So why aren't other guards picked on to the degree Steph is? They're really treating him like food out there.
Because the other 4 guys on the court can be argued to be a part of an All defensive team. The gap in defensive ability between Curry and the other 4 guys are probably higher than any other team in the league.

This is also true. As a result of this Steph is "hidden" on defense. Defense is as much about your physical attributes as it is your fundamentals. You can be the greatest defender ever and be 6'1" 190 lbs and still get bullied on defense, so Steph being smaller than those guys as well as Harden is also a huge factor.

in all seriousness, i think lebron is going to tank this series and lose to the celtics. everyone knows he is not coming back and he does not want to tarnish his finals record since golden state looks unbeatable.



Maybe. But he’s def not coming back they don’t have enough flexibility to make any moves.
