1. Who's more alpha on this Warriors team?
2. Who will average more PPG this season?
3. Who will be higher in the MVP rankings?

Durant may have made the sexy headlines this summer, but it's Steph's team until he decides it's not.

Could you answer the 3 questions?

Could you answer the 3 questions?

1) Steph
2) Torn on this one, but I'll go KD since I can't give Steph the benefit on everything...
3) Steph

1. Neither is the alpha. Draymond Green is. Being an alpha is severely overrated when you play on a talented roster. Curry and Durant both have passive team first personalities, and this is a good thing for the Warriors.

2. Durant scores more

3. Durant finishes higher in MVP voting, but they are very close. Probably listed side by side.

I like that answer for #1. Great point

Agree with tlance on this. On #3, Durant will finish higher, but if the Thunder finish with a 4-seed or higher, he's winning the MVP. I don't think Curry or Durant carries home the MVP - and I don't think either cares.

Yeah, Westbrook is gonna go rip-shit-ridem, stat wise.

If the Thunder finish top 4, he walks away with the MVP easily.

Lock the thread @trojanfan12 . Nothing else needed to be said

Durant to all three.

KD is a better basketball player than Steph.


Steph is the greatest shooter in the world, but KD does more.

Durant in all three categories.

 

[Inimical]

I think this is pretty simple. You work through Durant who creates match up nightmares 99% of the time, lessening the workload for Curry and as a result, more open looks for him. Also, when its not there, Durant can give Curry a step all day by having them work off eachother, expect monumental numbers for both of these players working off eachother. Can you say Alley Oops ?

 

[tducey]

Still going to be Curry's team IMO.

3 words. O'Brien, or nothin'...

Pretty much this. Neither is the vocal leader, it just isn't their personality.

I think KD has the better chance at the MVP and scoring average as well.

I refuse to participate because I hate the Warriors and everything they stand for.
