So you are claiming that Klay was the primary reason for why Golden State won their championship in 2015, i.e. the year before they signed Durant?

The the fact that Steph Curry was the NBA MVP that season and averaged 26 points and 6.3 assists per game during the NBA Finals would seem to counter your argument.

You mean the NBA Finals where the bench player (Andre Iguodala) won the Finals MVP? That's your argument for Curry's Finals performance?

Sure you do. He couldn't win the MVP award unless he had it easy.

The Warriors sucked for most of his first several seasons, and he couldn't elevate them until he had Klay and Draymond.

He doesn't have to carry a heavy minutes load, nor does he have to carry a defensive load at all. It's easy to put up big numbers on offense (Irving, Harden) when you don't have to expend much energy on defense.

Eh. I thing Curry is firmly in that superstar crowd of players. Not a generational talent like Jordan or LeBron.

Apparently, leading your team in scoring is 'having it easy'

According to 'Hamas' Jenkins winning the MVP award is also easy which explains why Harden won it. Never knew!

'Hamas' Jenkins is really killing it with his posts today.

Who was Golden State’s leading scorer during the NBA Finals that year? Not bad for the “third best player” on Golden State.

Also your Troy Aikman analogy with Steph Curry is laughably stupid.

Lulz Lakers hire Frank Vogel as head coach with Jason Kidd one of his assistants

That is silly Hamas. His early years he was hurt because of his ankles. Once he was healthy he exploded.

That's revisionism. He's had a ton of ankle injuries in the last four years, too.

And we’ll never know thanks to Durant’s laughable move to the team who beat him to grab a few counterfeit championships, a move even he is ashamed of.

Being able to do nothing for entire games/series and still winning is having it easy, yes.
