Prove he doesn't need Durant? He already did that prior to Durant joining the Warriors. Durant coming to GS wasn't for Curry, it was for Durant to get some rings. GS has and always will be Curry's team.

Hell yeah he does. They keep the core of this team together and they're contenders for the next 2-3 years. The fans will always love Curry more because he came up with the org but if Durant signs a 4 year deal it's going to be more of an equal partners sort of thing in everybody's eyes.

This is all speculation. The W's are a great team without Durant but he had some really big, key games the last 3 years. Who's to say how series would have turned out without some monstrous, I'm the best player in the NBA performances without him. The dialogue around this team is a joke. When Durant is rolling Curry's overrated, when Curry is rolling Durant is unnecessary. The margin of error is razor thin if you want to make it to 5 straight finals and all the guys that were involved deserve credit for pulling this shit off.

Buddy this entire dynasty became a joke the moment Durant went there. The dialogue created for this team is just artificial drama stirred up by the league writers and sports writers to try and plant a seed of doubt in the viewers mind that essentially a team that one would make in NBA 2k dynasties may just lose, or could be on the brink of losing.

Yeah, it doesn't count because they signed a free agent. God forbid someone take a job where they want to take a job. And he's one guy.

Didn't they barely escape Houston last year? Nothing is certain.

And btw, doesn't this contradict the point you made that I was originally responding to? Stop hating dude.

I did respond. The dialogue around this team is a joke because the dialogue created to talk about this team is all artificial and bogus. It's just something to try and draw clicks by sports writers because there is no flaws in this team. you got 5 all-stars plus a solid bench going into a series with the Toronto Raptors.....Toronto Raptors for the NBA championship....NBA has to stir something up to draw interest.

Yeah, either that or maybe the Bucks, who would be a match-up nightmare for the Warriors, could have not lost 4 games straight to be sent home. Why is this the Warriors problem? They had the talent to win and you really couldn't have asked for anything else roster-wise going into the Raptors series and they lost. That's not something the Warriors do.

You kidding...?

course he does...

He's probably kidding. This dude's MO is to make some very out there takes, most of which he can't possibly believe himself. Like Curry not wanting Durant back, or Jordan not GOAT, or Pippen carried MJ, etc.

Curry seems like one of those rare people that doesnt care about anything but winning.

Its not artificial drama. They are one of the best teams of all time, that draws drama...

Actually he's pretty religious, thanks God a lot to reporters, and devoted to his family. Winning is important. What isn't is credit/ego bullshit. He knows he's great so he doesn't need validation of that.

Jordan, Kobe didn't care about anything but winning. This guy is just special.

I'm sure that on some level Curry would like to show what he can win a finals MVP without KD. Everyone has an ego and no matter how well Steph hides it, he has one too.

Having said that, I think that what sets him apart from other superstars is the fact that he can keep his ego in check and just enjoy winning rings.

I think he'd rather finish his career with say 4 or 5 rings and no finals MVP's than with 3 rings and a finals MVP.

Besides, I doubt anyone thinks that the Warriors are anyone's team other than Steph's...including KD.

Or do you think he wants to prove he didn't needed Durant. I would bet that Draymond doesn't since he is featured more in the offense without Durant.

Maybe the Warriors will go out and get Kahwi after he loses to them. Or maybe Lebron.

No reason to have the 3rd best player in the league, when you can have the 1st or 2nd...
