in last year's playoffs due to injury to Bogut, Ezeli, and even Jermaine O'Neal, they had to start David Lee at CENTER
deandre jordan in the series...
Curry's shot is pretty damn pure tho...

they were last season, not in 12-13
Their defense has sagged off but they still have a +10 point differential. You can't expect teams to go out 100% every game tbh. There will be a stretch where even great teams will look mediocre. Spurs, Heat, Lakers have these stretches. I remember when the Lakers would always lose to teams and scrubs would light them up. This was in the midst of their championship form. Also, the Dubs still limit their opponents to under a hundred per game.

little Elian Gonzalez just done locked up the MVP imho
Curry is ridiculous, tbh..
Spurs better be ready for Harden tomorrow, it's his last chance at an MVP statement game, tbh..
Curry is ridiculous against everyone but the Spurs.
Curry with the Regular-Season Three-Point Shooting Championship... when's the parade scheduled for?
good thing for us
Danny Green is his kryptonite
Goddamn Curry....

They haven't been since the ASB tho. Like I said, they've been getting by from the strength of their offense. Point differential has also become a misleading stat imo, seeing as the amount of tanking/mediocre teams the past few years has been so large.Their defense has sagged off but they still have a +10 point differential.

Klay was the one who was the bed against the Spurs. To me Steph played a decent game while Klay just had a hard time overall against Green and Leonard
that would be true if there wasn't such a disparity between them and #2...

I like playing against teams with individuals aspiring for individual brilliance. easier to defend.
Like I said, a lot of mediocre teams. If not for injuries the Spurs, Dubs, and Thunder would have ~58-60 wins while seeds 4-8 would be around 50.
I don't know. I went back to look at Currys regular season numbers against the Spurs and they were all pretty pedestrian. He shot a good percentage but it seemed like he never took a high amount of shots. I'd like to think the Spurs did a got job getting the ball out of his hands.
and like i said, if there were so many bad/mediocre teams, there would be more teams with ridiculously high point differentials, but GSW leads that stat by a considerable margin
He had that little stretch where he scored like 10 straight vs Enrique early in the 3rd Qtr. Once Pop stuck Green/Kawhi on him he went scoreless the rest of the quarter.
Every year we have a late-season stretch where teams which are bad and just decide to park and lose a lot of games. This isn't an anomaly or a misleading thing, it's called tanking.
Winning percentage + margin of victory + points allowed per game are not good measures of quality individually, but when you look at it together, I think it is a good barometer of a team's direction. Put together that tells me that a team is beating a lot of opponents by decent margins and they are not allowing them to score a ton of points.
However, I agree with you, the comparison probably isn't comprehensive as I think we should have the same comparison for the Warriors against playoff-bound teams. But when you see that the Warriors are 29-9 against teams that are over .500...
